Question Built?? Toyota Falcon Aristo V300



Has anyone built this kit by Aoshima? I was thinking of buying it but need the 411 on the build!

Thanks,
Scott

I've built that kit. My front bumper was cracked when I got mine. As a matter of fact the front bumper needs a little work to make it flush with the fender, and I had to glue the side skirts on before painting. I felt the intercooler was a little small for such a big opening. Overall I didn't think it was a bad kit to build. I slammed mine on modified 1/18 wheels from a Porsche GT3 with Dodge Sidewinder Flamed tires.

The kit can definitely use some work. As you can see in my pic, theres noticable putty on the front bumper. THere are 2 plastic nubs on the front end that are supposed to go into the bumper, but they need to be cut off and then the bumper needs to be puttied (not glued, unless you have very strong glue) to the body. The rear bumper is also quite flimsy and needs to be puttied to the body.
