Honda Civic Coupe

I am building this as a replica of a 1:1 car I built but sold last year. So far I have sprayed down Tamiya Mica Silver on the body. I modified the front bumper to get rid of the fog light inserts and make it look more like a regular bumper. The interior is some dark grey that I had in the paint supply. I sprayed suade paint on the seats, armrest, and door panel inserts to give it some texture then sprayed the grey over it.
More to come. Let me know what you think.

Re: Honda Civic Coupe

Thanks for all the comments

Heres a little update and some extra pics. This is what the car looked like when I sold it. The engine pic is a little old. It had a red valve cover and a differnet intake manifold when it was sold.






Heres what I got done so far. Painted and polished up the body. It still needs window trim and some detailing. Detailed the dash and made a steering wheel (might redo it though). It had a detachable steering wheel. The last pics is some isc parts that are either scratch build or resin painted with various Alclad aluminum shades.





Feedback please!!

Re: Honda Civic Coupe

The motor parts are top notch, and your detailing on the dash is excellent!
