Finished Pics of ITR

[jaxson]

Hey everyone,
I finally got me ITR done after running into some problems with missing decals and a broken window. So I want to thank Tonioseven and Daggerlee for their help. Tonioseven was nice enough to send me the decals that I had lost and Daggerlee helped to replace my broken windows. This is my first completed automotive model. So please tell me what you guys think. I have finish pics of my Celica coming up, so look out for it.
As you can see in the pics, I made some vents on the carbon fiber hood. I also scratch built the intercooler which I learned to do from flyonthewall's thread.






I'm sorry if I put too many pics on this page for dial-up modem users. I had to put alot of pics so people could judge my work.

:sun: your Celica looks better in real life but in the pics this one takes the cake we'll take some better pics of the Celica next time!!

wow nice ride!!! The rims really stand out... good choice on the rims hahaha..

Hey I wonder... is there a way to put carbon fiber effects on plastic!?!?!?

like.. on the hood and mirrors

[Veyron]

Nice job! Looks like it's ready for serious business!

Your wipers need to be black..
Other than that, it's a good clean job.
Does it run 12 second quarters?

[tonioseven]

You've done great!!!I have 5 of those kits; maybe I should build a copy of the one I had stolen from me.

wow, you did an awesome job, I love it.

[Midnight Racer]

Wow you did a great job.Rims look great on the ITR.

Thanks for your comments, Midnight Racer, kicker1_solo, tonioseven, Daryl, Veyron, tomazws and daggerlee. I really appreciate them. Daryl, I'll see if i can make them black. The only problem I see is that the window is glued right next to it. But I'll take your advice. Tonioseven, you should build another one. I'm sur eit would come out looking really hot. I also want to say i feel really relieved with the comments on my choice of rims. I was feeling kinda shaky choosing them because I have read some threads in which people thought otherwise. Dont forget to check out my Celica post coming up in less then one week. Peace.

It's nicer than the 2 i built
First automotibe model,before this,what were you building???it seems like you have expierience with models because your car looks nice,but 2 comments,why is there an intercooler but no turbo???and this must be a gsr right??? because you don't have the type r stickers on the side and you have a rear windshield wiper,but overall it's very nice,i love the interior

nice job on the integra. cant wait to see the celica. as for the black right next to the windshield, you can easily avoid problems by using masking tape on the clear plastic. then you can paint the area without worrying. just make sure that the masking tape adheres well to the windshield so that paint does not get underneath. BTW tamiya masking tape is best.

That ITR looks great. Nice choice of color combinations. I hope my next one turns out that good.

cause intercoolers look cool, and turbos are kinda harder to build. And you don't need the stickers to make it a type r.
