Maybe a bit of light dremel work or filing around those red tabs take a bit off to see if you can get them fitting a little better....

Looks good though overall

Wow, from the pics, I thought it was aluminum! I guess the paint made it look that good! The car should be in good hands with Zippo!

finally got my mint g35, and i took advantage of the sale, and got a new gtr and another vette, (not pictured, its the wife's and she's working on putting it together.)
and i found these 1/32 tamiya toys at the hs. they're 4wd and pretty cool. i'm thinking i can rob the wheels off of it for a truck, and mount the body on a custom chassis. its an isuzu thats waiting for a paint job.


edit, o yeah an a sneak preview of something i have up my sleeve.

I have two of those sitting here my room too Zippo, the SRT I'm going to build regularly, then I have a R/T kit that I might make an Xmod. Let me know how the fitting goes, its a long body no doubt, its a huge car.

Also, judging from the pics yours is an SRT as well. What color you thinking of?

I'm liking the blue 350z,they are still available in Germany and I keep thinking about getting one,I've already got 2 orange ones so am having trouble justifying getting one.
I like the evo gpm too,I love anodised alloy parts and I love evo's too,great combination.
