We i've put this under 'new built' but it still not finished yet.
This car has been a right pain to built & decal!
First it did'nt come with a full set of ball races as i thought, 2nd some bit's were missing from the kit, 3rd my LHS ran out of white gloss (so i had to use matt), 4th i tryed to mask the window rubbers with tamiya masking tape but the black bled through and to top it all off there's one area were the paint just kept going wrong!!! oh and after all that the decals are don't fit in some areas and i tore some of em!! but all in all i can fix theses things as time go's on. I've still need to find some scale mash to fit the grills (if anyone got any spare)?
And find some lights for it.
One thing i did sus out was that since i've painted it matt & this cars going to be a runner (like all my cars) the dirt & dust will ingrain better to the paint so if it get dirty it's staying that way!! one other thing i might do it is fit some scale rally mud flaps (i'm still not sure what to make them out of though so help would be gratefull) but other then all these little thing i can say it's finished..... for now!!
P.S.
I did really like painting the driver's for this one i think thats the only bit i really enjoyed about the whole thing!

The nice thing with those kinds of little mistakes though is that you really don't notice them in photos - the car looks great!
