clatescivicr, the pics of the left side where over exposed or too dark but right side was okay

Forhod: clearcoat and polish (no primer though )

the mirrors were unwillingly sacrificed to the evil gods of destuction

i also noticed the GT-R's are missing from the wheels. and also, one of the rear reverse lights is supposed to be red if i'm not mistaken. not sure which side, but i think one is red and one is white.

yup, the left is white, right is red. anyway, looks pretty good. Without primer you dont get that orange peal, you get shiny paint no matter what. Looks kinda not skyliney without mirrors :finger:

it is an older kit of mine so some of the decals have been rubbed off by handeling. the red light nest to the plate fell off

its sprayed tamiya mica blue.
the tail lights were painted with base colors, i have the proper clear colors though.
