Yeah thems the ones!

The rear 2 have a slightly greater offset and the front not really any offset. They're pretty cool.

Got my bits, paint, mask and wheels (which I need to glue up).

Just waiting on the shell now, hopefully be here soon!

[Bobby9779]

Might not post up step by step. Got excited and already done a few bits without taking pics. Lol.

I will definately post up pics when done. Might need help with wheel choice too. As I have a few different ones now.

[Bobby9779]

Got it masked off, just waiting for my new body posts so I can drill the shell in the right place.

Looking good already, really want to spray it now, but need to wait til it is cut out and drilled.

Getting there. Will post up when complete.

Edit: just finished cutting it out (painful), drilled the front 2 holes (perfect) and waiting for posts now (hopefully come tomorrow) then comes the good bit....painting and final decals.

Well here it is....Go easy on me it is my first shell from scratch.





You might not be able to tell in the pics but I have gone with the mag-esc wheels, the rear are offset slightly giving it a hotrod look.

[sheepo]

Looks good man! For your first attempt! what made you choose the aquamarine?
