C-West RX 7 ***in progress***
Hi, heres a few pics of the C-West car. It's almost done, bar the chasis and final detailing. I love how the color came out, but I'm about to strip it and try again because I'm not happy with the surface prep I did...

Ah, the color. It's turning into my worst nightmare!!!
The base coat is a custom mix of Tamiya Orange, yellow and red with flat base so it goes on satin. The next five coats are tamiy clear mixed with Wave Yellow Pearl, and the following Pearl-Ex pigments - Interference Gold, Brilliant Gold and a little Sparkle Gold. It doesn't show up that well in the photos, under good sunlight it's sort of like Labourgini Califonia Orange, but way brighter. Those photos we taken in doors so it's a bit dull. It top it off with Tamiya clear. Problem is... the first time I got it on perfect, then rubbed through it while polishing (doh  ), so off it went to see Mr Brake Fluid. This time it all went fine, but there are some pearl 'tide marks' in the clear caot where I shot it to heavy, so tommorow it will be off to the stripping tank again. Third times a charm!!!

What color did you use! It looks like a goldish-orange yellow shiny paint.

yes those rims came with the kit.
lotus_man: did you lower it at all? it looks lower then mine...and did you do the same thing as fly did with his on the side pieces of the body-kit, because they don't seem to be sticking out as much as mine do. fly: what the hell became of your C-West RX-7?? i was anxiousley looking forward to it being done!
