Lexus IS350 in progress....

Hi guys! After getting a big headache from the SLR, took a short break and now i'm doing another kit that is the Lexus IS350 from Fujimi. Hmm....Guess this round I will do the exterior first. Still thinking of the interior colour. Here are some of the pics I just took. Cheers!





Doing a pre-fit now.. Looking good.. not much mold lines to sand.



Then I saw the front bumper and Arggh...why is the plate frame mold on?



Then again... I kind of like this.... like a small aeroplane on the roof

Looks good. The only real Lexus I'd consider buying at this point in the market (and if I were looking for a car). I like it in the silver-blue ("breakwater blue") with black leather.

Ya... I kind of prefer this Lexus IS than the previous one. The automatic version has those shift paddles that makes it like a Ferrari or Lamborghini Hmm... I do have an eye for Pearl white...

The antenna on the roof I believe is for the Navigation system and the Satellite Radio,

Yep, that's what it's for. My dad's A4 has one; we call it the Shark Fin.
