Now it looks even better.and any plans on rims because those dont look to good on that body.and for the paint scheme i would go with silver w/ black stripes.

any ideas for wheels?

[XmodzICON82]

i like the wheels that you have on it in the pics....

[mustanglover]

lower the front a little. and wet sand it with 1400 grit.

i put the black wheels on it, looks much better

lower the front a little. and wet sand it with 1400 grit.

ill try to lower it some but its kinda hard to do

i tried hittin it with so 320, didnt do much, you think a wet sand and 1400 will help?

[stangdude94]

so are u going to do the gold strips on it

i dont know with this one, if i do i have the decals for it, but i may find another kit and just start over

Whaoh 320 grit is way too low! Typically start with wet sanding 400, and work your way up to 1500-2000 grit. Be patiant with it, and stay off the edges of the body lines so you don't sand through.

Looks good so far though. :)
