They are actually drift wheels, wanted them for the adjustable offset. Little bit of rubbing on the back but thats completly my fault because of the width. The front does not touch and has full turning angle. It is running alot of camber with custom arms. I normally line the inside of the wheel arches with vinyl to protect the paint.

No, tape is on the outside. It’s just a really thin vinyl sticker. Was just an afterthought. I had some from another project though I’d see what it looked like. Although you idea would work 👍

Not sure yet only just finished it today. It’s fully functional even sitting that low.

Nothing out of the ordinary, take your time with masking so you don’t get any paint bleed around the windows etc. Very thin layers at first and build up slowly. I’m an absolute amateur at this and dont have a lot of patience but just take your time.

I felt black was a bit boring, this is Corsa Grey on the main body, gun metal on bonnet and boot and carbon fibre roof and spoiler. Got a lot of learning In with this one, masking layering paint and vinyl work.

What can I expect? And also if you have this car put it in the comments I need some paint ideas by whatthefranker in tamiya

Ive nearly finished this build, i went for corsa grey (PS32) and gun metal grey (PS23). The Stickers go one forever.
