Tricky-Ricky Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 I've seen this kit somewhere else & it came out real nice (TrickyRicky maybe?) Should look like this when fully blended and finished Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaz1 Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 well if it comes out like the one above your onto a winner mate;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul R Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 hmmm....this thread is shocking really. Give the guy a break. Same old people slagging the same old things off. The main reason I stopped posting on here years ago! Well good luck to you mate. When you do the paint, i'd do it under cover though or you will get dust and bits of grit in the paint and it will ruin the finish. Ignore the miserable old gits on here! Each to their own I say. Paul. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRalphMan Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 I think I'm with the minority and prefer stock cars, but you look like you're doing some top work there and from the pic of the white car above, the kit doesn't look too bad TBH. Hope it does come out well for ya... Braver then me anyway... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoff Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 I like the kit and top marks for doing it yourself:thumbs: I hope it all goes well, so far so good for sure:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyT Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 I just would not have the nuts to do that. If it comes out like Tricky's pic you'll have a very tasty end product and a whole lot of respect too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tricky-Ricky Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 Good luck to you mate, and top marks for doing it yourself, its the best way to go if you are confident, the purpose of my pic is to show the moaners and doubters that the kit is a nice one! i bet the same people would not have the balls to attempt it;) All kits during the fitting and fettling stage don't look to pretty, i got some similar comments when i put up the pics of mine, but not so many, so we have more critics these days, so take no notice;) One tip with regards to blending everything in, take your time and use a large sanding block, and blend it over a larger area rather than small, or it will show after you paint it.

jevansio Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 Should look like this when fully blended and finished http://i208.photobucket.com/albums/bb118/Tricky-Ricky13/001.jpg I knew it came out real nice , that is a lovely looking Supe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pabs Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 you've got the b*lls mate - well done. I can imagine it being very hard to do something like this yourself - I really hope it comes out well for you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNT Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 Watching with interest, I bought the kit a couple of weeks ago. Huge respect for tackling it yourself, I would have no idea how to start so will bite the bullet and have it done by a bodyshop, talking to Knight Racer at the moment. You,ve made my mind up for me in whether to get it blended in or not. I wouldn't worry about the negative comments, its your car, the kit is different but a good look compared to some I,ve seen on here. Hope it goes well.

mplavery Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 I think you have done a good job mate...Have not seen the kit before but the post of the white supra with the kit looks really good!..I would get a body shop to do the spraying so you get a real good finish though. I hope it goes well mate and it nice to see some1 with a different kit on for a change. Keep posting the pics mate of your progress. Hope you prove a few ppl on here wrong with there nasty comments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
