Another Tamiya Impreza WRX STi kit. Lay dormant at 50% complete while I lived in the UK, but I have now finally finished it off. Thankfully my skills have got a bit better since I started this kit! It's pretty much OOB apart from the Fujimi Enkei ?? wheels and tyres. Cracked a large piece of paint off the rear when inserting the tail lights - perfect fit with no paint, but a pain after a few coats. Should have known better!

Well, off to start (finally!!) the entry for the 80's competition. Grant.

Thanks for the comments.

Yeah, the rims are Fujimi Enkei NT-03's, modified a bit and painted in gun metal.
