That looks jaw-droppingly good. And I'm with you, it looked even better in plain white.
Unbelieveable. ;D

That is excellent work, i wouldn't have believed that it was steel without seeing the build pics. Brilliant that he opted to do all the work and keep all the doors functional I love the way he simulated the wide wheels by tacking one rim to another.
Another vote for having kept it white, but I do think it looks a bit naked without a wing on the back.
I used to run a scale one in a 4wd slot car class, de-stickered and painted bright red as a street version.

If the Sport Quattros are anything to go off then I'd say they'll probably be some form of composite construction. Carbon-Aramid weave's shape showing through a thin layer of paint, trouser mess worthy if you ask me:

As much as I enjoy bosozoku, I wish the boso/shako movement in Japan would morph into a more serious modality, somewhat along these lines. This is true skill, and a chuckle-free zone has thus been created. Think of this being done to a Bluebird or a Skyline, or even a bigger basis like Cedric or Maxima, and now we're talking moving boso artists out of the comical and into the impressive. This here is good good stuff.
But to be greedy..... OK, he's got a body shell, now what?
