I hope you don't mind me writing in your thread, but though I'd show you what I did to one of my models - I was bored!

Bought a Rally Fabia 1:18....




Stripped it down, ground down bonnet vents, and filled, along with aerial holes and rear bumper exhaust hole....



Sprayed and lacquered in metallic black (excuse poor pictures - finish is actually very good but the flash picked up too much of the metallic sparkle). I also relocated the under-bonnet intercooler to make it a FMIC and added grill mesh....









The only disappointing bit are the holes in the rear window where the rally spoiler was fixed. Not a bad mini project though?
I've also done one exactly the same in the Skoda limited edition electric blue. May sell them yet, haven't decided!
I also have a Honda S2000 which was bright yellow but I've sprayed that in metallic black too and lowered it to the floor 'HellaFlush stylee' (pictures can be obtained if anyone wants to see).

I know, that's the only bad point! Thanks for the comments though It was quite an involved project in the end, I thought filling the bonnet vent holes would have been much easier well, it would have been if my mini drill/grinder hadn't broken mid-project!!

Don't know if I'll do any more difficult ones.

I've also done a Cobra, Mk2 Escort and Porka, along with lots of 1:43 Skylines, Corsa, Nova, Mini, Camper van, Lotus Carlton, Scooby, Fabia etc.

Escos now looks like this, its a horrible colour , still needs polished up so should shine up pretty well





And I bought some Cibies that come on the Avo MK1, trial fitted them to my MK1 with bluetac, need to buy some other bits for it too
