VW New Beetle

[iceracer1]

Today I completed this simple Revell kit. It was painted MS-1 Bright Gold by Tamiya spraycan and than polished with Micromesh polishset.

I added a nice set of Fabulous Profound wheels, which looks almost the same as the Audi A8 rims. These wheels are very often used on VW's in Europe.

And here are the final pics:



































I really love the result of the paintjob. It has a great shine and maybe we'll hang it in the christmas tree this year

The fittment of this kit is not bad at all, but the windows are the main problem of this kit. I tryed to fix it with a lot of glue and some crocodile clips but it is still not perfect in my eyes.

Here's a short list of modifications and accesoires I used:

- custom made frontbumper
- cleaned bumpers
- fuelcap removed
- 20'' Fabulous Profound wheels by Aoshima
- black interiorflocking
- pinstripe on the hood
- PE cd and Nokia
- some magazines

Hope you like it.

Very nice job overall, the color is excellent, also good job on the rims, they really suit the car. I don't really like the matted out headlight and taillight lenses, but to be honest, they suit the theme - congrats!

The gold paint came out really nice! The whole car looks like "show" quality.
