Re: Supra Drag Car

I think he said it was a decal. I'm not a fan of the decal, but whatever suits you.

Did you use bondo to formt he bumper and everything?

Re: Supra Drag Car

It's painted on, and looks a little rough now, but after cleaning it up and clear coat it looks real nice, I've done this before.
And yes, bondo was used to fill in all the holes.

Re: Supra Drag Car

Change of plans, I dont like the decal setup, so I'm painting it yellow with a carbon hood, and a black stripe diag on along the back of the car.

Re: Supra Drag Car

Thanks, Bandito, for the inspiration on this model, I'm working on almost the same thing, except I'm doing a different front bumper, airbrake rear spoiler, a Toyota F1 paint scheme, and some other "Top Secret" stuff that cannot be spilled...

I'll try to get it up soon, I may even make custom turboes... Maybe put some wax coating over a 1/20 Tamiya turbo from a MP4/4 I ditched, and then put some hardener over it... it'll look nice, maybe even a pair of F1 magnesium wheels up front...

Re: Supra Drag Car

So far, I just need to work on these twin turboes, and I'm working on connecting 2 radiators to make a large intercooler, and put it underneath the hood, infront of the engine. this is gonna be kickass...
