[quote=petey.;4503187]thanks mate, i hope mine looks half as good as yours when its painted! superb mate!
ive asked alan to cut the bumper off just below the foglights, that way i can use some putty and make a proper xr4i front bumper aswell, i might have a go with the hacksaw tommorow though saves me a few quid in postage lol!

did you change the headlight surrounds at all? ive rounded mine off a tiny bit, but not sure whether to make the top edge a little lower to sit flush with the bonnet extension?

i think it will look wicked as it looking cool as fook already
i cut mine off at the fog lights then the rest is putty,i had to grind some out the bak of ir aswel,it stuck out to far.

i used the mk3 lights,just trimmed the tops off abit,rounded the corners off aswel,also on the indicators,just need to finish them abit tho.

right i have done a a4 sheet of tiger stripes,different sizes and shapes etc..
only printed on normal paper but will make some decals up soon, with them being on a4 sheet u can make your own design up from whatever u want on the sheet.u could even have differnent colours and overlap them ,well u get the idea.i will do a car properly once got decals made.

looks mint mate, really well done.
ive got 5 1/18 cars and a 1/24 R33 skyline on my desk atm but im just trying to work through them slowly.
Lexus' bodykit is finished, shells been primed just waiting for the putty to set on the bootlid (done a lip spoiler & smoothed the lights out) then i can get it painted.
impreza needs the side skirts finishing off and then need to decide on a colour.
got half way through cutting the sierras bumper off and the hacksaw blade snapped, so need to get a new one before i can get the sierra and the escort turbo sorted.

oh and used the putty to finish off the rear quarters on the swb evo, just need sanding down/matching so theyre even
