Integra Type R

I just bought this kit, and it is real fun to put together. Dan, i'm not sure if it was you that needed some integra decals but you can have mine because i'm not going to use them. so far i've assembled the interior and it is looking great. the engine bay is black and red and the inside is black with red seats.

the only thing i have done to the body is attach the front grille, and the rear bumper. then i sanded it down. tomorrow i will be adding the coats of primer and if things go well, the first layers of black paint. this model will be black with the red acura decals and such. very sharp looking!

Sounds good! Someday we'll have to compare it to mine. Of course, mine's a Mugen Honda ITR. Estimated time to completion: 8 months!!! :hehe:

The Revell Integra Type R kit sells for about $10 (US). It's cheap; buy a fleet!
