Completed JUN Prelude [More PICS to come]

**More pics to come**

I'll get some outside. It snowed here, and its dark now, so it may be a bit.

Finished it in between meals at thanksgiving.

Mods:
~Rims painted silver
~Custom exhaust
~Lowered slightly
~REAR WHEEL STEERING! Well, not a mod, but COOL!

**I didn't paint the body though, i liked the yellow it came in. I just shined it up with some Turtle Wax Polishing Compund**

*****ALSO*****
The color is a bit darker than in the pictures. Its NOT bannana yellow as it appears.














Enjoy!

Oh! I just read the top, you did't paint the body? That's weird it looked like it was painted. Surprising

it looks good, but 2 quarbles i have with it
1) as good as the yellow it came molded in is, i still think it would have looked better painted. you also left out a few details, such as painting the Honda "H" on the hood.
2) altezza tailights on a Jun car?? i dunno about that...

thr RG's also look weird in silver, as i've only ever seen them in gold or white (the factory colors). but overall, good job!

Looks good! Only complant here is that you didn't paint the window trim on the glass or add panel lines for the doors and hood.
I got the same kit on my table now, just waiting to get some gold to red flip/flop paint for it!

I gotta get me a gundam marker. I was thinkin about doing the panel line with a thin brush, but i figured i'd screw it up. As for the Honda emblem on the hood, look again, its there and you must be blind...j/k. And for the altezzas, that aren't really altezzas, i was going for this look:

Nice build
IMO, the body seem very plastic like as it's unpainted. But you did a fine job polishing it.

The lighting in the pics don't do enough justice for the prelude.

For a car thats not painted it looks rather good.
It really needs to have a few panel lines to highlight it a bit more.

Looking good though

Yeah they are straw exhauts again. The one it came with was real tiny, and didn't suit the car well. I am glad you all like it and i will eventually do the panel lines.
