AE86 Coupe.
 
Since I haven't shared anything with XMS lately, here's my latest project. :D

AE86, Trueno Coupe.

Rear's mounted, front's in progress.

Left to do:

Bodywork (Minimal, wide fenders on rear?)
Damage (Dents, zipties, etc.)
Partial Interior
Flip-up lights? Maybe only half-up?
Rear tow hook, maybe with drift charm?

Some inspirational pics:

Paint scheme like this, not sure about the silver though. Yellow?

Kyosho Mini-Z's do not make Levin's though...

This project is off to a very good start, I like the starting progress too, remember keep patient with your work. Can't wait to see the final result, definitely more unique for being a model kit and a Levin instead of a typical Z-Trueno.

I know that. I meant in terms of body length

uh, this ae86 is a trueno...
great lookin' wheel arch, man.

Ehhhh not so happy about the paint... The masking was bad. I'll probably sand it down again and repaint, or maybe just touch up the spots.

I did wetsand it though, so that's why the paint looks dull.
