ill give it a go if i cant find a replacement, itll be a pain though cos of the shape & curve, and the fact theres no ledge or anything to glue it to

 

neither lol, got to pick up old man from airport. might get round to some models later on tonight seing as i aint got to get up.

 

Im amazed how late some of you lads are up till im up at 6am every morning to start work at 7am.
I won this on ebay last night (thanks to Steve for finding it)

Im looking to build a 'home' garage diorama to fit the width-depth & height of one of my shelf spaces in glass cabinet,already got a few ideas on the look im after.

 

i go to work weekdays at 5-6am. today was a 6am start so long day ...

like the tools m8,build a garage like steves started, i would if i had the space to put one.

 

Iwould like something bigger but same as you lack of space.Steve gave me an idea to build one to go on top of my ikea cabinets but trouble is you wouldn't see much due to how heigh up it would be.

 

i like the garage stuff there mate

 

Cheers,and for the bargain price of Ł20 if i had more space i'd love to build a 'Ford' showroom.

 

i have a busy week ahead of me if i cant get my finger out
stripped the sierra rs500 with nitro mors to make it in to a road car and got rs500 decals from Dave.
doing my transit van aswell new paint job, wheels and a exhaust.
my escort mk1 rs got new decals from Dave and new rs 4 spokes to go now too.

Dave i will get some up tomorrow mate the camera is in the car cant be bother going to get it as it is snowing up here

 

Dave are you able to do mk1 mexico decals in white?.

 

ive got some white mk1 mexico decals in white vynal..

 

Ok nice one,thought they would look good on my red mk1

smoke tinited indicators yellow tinted driving lamps


upper & lower ribbed bars smoke tinited




you can also see the rear hea restraints ive fitted to the XR

 

Nice touches there

 

cheers

 

Liked the yellow fogs on the rs

 

Look sweet, bleeding egg's are every were.

 

hmm eggs!!!!
mine never stay around for long !!!
i might have to pop down shop now!!

 

big thanks to pete

bmw now has some alpina side graphics !!!!

 

lol just commented on that on facebook didnt notice it here, finishes it off nicely mate, like i say just needs trimming round the front arch
not fancy colour coding all the black plastics yellow?

 

yere i will be getting rid of black plastic , still got the rear lights and exhaust to sort out as well.

 

welll i wanted a matt black car and a really big spoiler, so..



its meant to look really rough around the edges like a home built track car, hence the bad paint etc
wheelarches are model motorvations, and the wheels are model motorvations but i customised them to look like Work XD9s
(started as these - )


i know it looks a bit gash, but its all reversible, its only paint & glue and at some point when i have less projects on the go it'll get a nice new shiney paint job. (and hopefully a new rear window! )

 

Liking that Pete

 

nice 1 pete , spoiler is huge !!!
liking what u done with the rims.

 

Like that alot , looks mean and nasty

 

i am well pissed of now
i got decals of Dave for my mk1 escort and i got the bonnet one on ok and then i started with the side and had to cut then which was ok doing that and got them on and make a total bloody mess i cant do this i am ok with ones i dont have to cut
had to cut them because of the wide arches which i had done great

just wish i got in touch with Dave to send my car to him for Dave to do it for more money down the bloody drain

i have the RS500 decals which are easy to fit which should be going on in a couple of weeks

DAVE HELP PLEASE

 

propwer nice dirty track car (not all are shiney trailer queens)

 

i like the way this BMW looks Dave

another project a german police mercedes or (polizei car)


minichamps w212 e class wheels painted matt black & fitted with a large push bar

grill insert painted matt black
front fogs painted red & blue
and that big push bar


tail lights get the full red tint treatment
things to do
1)green body stripe (painted )
2)polizei wording white for green stripe black for bonnet and boot lid + car number for roof (decal any volentiers)
3) roof light (working) and possibly a siren(again working)
i have got a working light purchased if e-bay but i didnt read the listing properly and got the wrong one its an internal mount (unmarked cars) so here it is fitted to the w212 (e-class) exciteaible little brother
w204 (c-class) unmarked car

looks standard!!

is that something in the top of the screen??





hands where i can see them you all nicked!!

pmsl

 

matt the cop cars look cool
itd probably be a million times easier & better if you got dave to do the green strip in decal form with the polezei letters cut out so the white paint showed through, you wouldnt get the hassle of messy paint then - may as well if your getting the roof numbers etc done
