Happy New Year Fellas!!

Finally I finished the most detailed car which I built.

It is a great kit to build but need some attention in engine bay and trunk. I suggest you full pre-assembly before paint.

community building group but it goes to another way of detailing.

Hard for me to say, because I don't like this car or these kinds of customs, but

SUPERB paint and detail, and something you should be proud to show to others and display at home.

Crazy clean! I built one of these as well, but just stock straight out of the box. I agree with you about pre-assembly under the hood before painting.
