Get some silver paint for Diff, driveshaft, exhaust etc. Brush the silver on dry (fk all on the brush) so that some dark remains in the fins on diff and in all the nooks. makes it look weathered kinda.

You also need silver behind the headlights :-D

I love tat colour. Its so cloes to baltic blue.

I'm keen to find someone who supplied 1/24 wheels, there are heaps of cool of JDM rims in the catalogues, but none of the places I've been to stock anything.
1988 KE70 Wagon - Slowly rusting
1990 NA6 MX-5 - because reasons
2018 Ranger - Because workcar
1997 FD3S RX-7 Type R - all brap, all the time
OMG so shiny!
