Fujimi Mazda Speed RX-8

[Outamyhead]

This was one I got and finished just before I left the UK in 05, almost four years later I finally broke my complete and in progress models out of storage, here is one of my best builds to date.

Niiiiiiiiicccceeeee


Car shell being sprayed, yeah I made a spray stand out of an old bunch of sprues, works well, saved some money as well.


Chassis and cockpit tub is assembled


Couple of coats of clear to protect the decals and paint


Trunk brake light was made from scratch bit of plastic off the windscreen sprue (the original was so dinky it broke when cutting off from the sprue frame).


Seems to be too much distance between the bumper and the wheels somehow?

Wish I had used all the mesh in hindsight for the front grill, don't know why it asked for a small strip along the inside you can't really see


Any feedback would be nice, any recommendations on fixing the bumper issue?
