The Road Car: The Tommi Mäkinen Edition

Had this body lying around for a while, bought it cheap at a Hong Kong online shop. The Lancer EVO 6 is one of the best EVOs in my opinion, it just looks so mean!


I was planning on making it box art just like my other Rally cars, but then I came across Maxxed Ross Imprezas which made me think of paint this EVO like a street version. Some weeks later I came across Lord of Hoards showroom which is full of cars with nice carbon detailing! I contacted him about how to apply the carbon and his answers helped me a lot (thanks Andy!) So then I knew for sure it had to be a street version.


I painted the shell white as some of the stickers are painted on white and because white gives a nice contrast with the carbon decals. The carbon decals are made by Parma, the rims are Bronze HPI TE37s with 3mm offset on the rear and 0mm offset on the front.


The body sits on a TA01/TA02, it has Taisan grey gearboxes and FRP plates from the Top Force, bought some of these parts from Dazza1 (thanks mate!).


I also fitted it with the touring car cockpit set from my Supra and a license plate with my initials on it.


I hope you like it!
