1/24 Scale S2000 Build
Hey guys, i got this kit a while back but didn't have the time to mess with it until today.
When i was younger i use to build models all the time, from Acura Integra's, Civic hatchbacks, Exotic cars, but my favorite were the imports because of the custom possibilities
My goal for this little build was for a track/street car
I'm no pro or anything i just like to mess around and see what i come up with.
Here is a pic of what i got to work with.
S2000 model
GT wing and muffler tune set
paint and accessories
and something really cool a 4 point roll cage
Oh and dont forget the aftermarket BBS RG's with a wider set of tires for the rear
First Build the Roll 4 point roll cage. I found this gem on ebay and it was made for
a 1/24 scale Porsche Carrera
Parts are nice and small so patience is key.
Painted gold to match the wheels
Need to let the Rollcage dry up and will finish it up tomorrow
Gold centers with silver lip
I went with silver gun-metal to paint the body (closest to Silverstone i could find)
Only the first coat
Also paint the wing set to match
Thats all i did today
I was looking around and found this
Mugen HT
and this
Mugen hood
But was sad because they are discontinued parts
and wont know when they will be made again.
MORE TOMORROW
