NSX Type R - 95% finished

Del-R · #1 12-13-2002, 12:25 PM

Hi all, I dont usually make any kits this time of year but I've had a few days off work so thought I'd best start getting rid of my back log so decided to work on this one... Its a built right out of the box Tamiya kit the only thing I have changed is the wheels which were from a S2000 kit and sprayed up white.
Just got a few things to do with it but its more or less complete..
Hope you like it.

A.W.E.S.O.M.E!!!

:coolguy: Great work!

Did you try to match it to Championship White, or just plain white? I can't tell in the pics...

Those wheels do look pretty hot on it! Good work all around!

(Looks like a good candidate for the AF model o' the year contest!!

)

I love it!

nice paintjob you did on a car! I know it isn't easy doing such a clean and tidy job, especially in white!

good work

And why does it have the NSX tailpipes, instead of the Type R round pipes?

Thanks for all the nice comments.

Jay:- Its just pure white, I've not yet found a close match to championship white, racing white is too creamy and to be honest pure white for this scale is suitable imho. I lost the exhaust assembly as I started this kit ages ago, so had to go out and buy a normal nsx for the exhaust bits, but having said that i have a couple of round tail pipes from the S2000 I 'borrowed' the wheels from, so might replace the oval pipes... I do like the oval ones though.

Cool. :sun: So what's the other 5%? Panel lines?

Beautiful white!
I love NSX too. impressive model!

generally, if NSX's roof was painted same body color, it's going to be different style maybe.

If that goes to the model of the year....wiat for mine it's coming in less than a week....
