onejdmcivic1984 Posted March 12, 2014 Author Share Posted March 12, 2014 UPDATES Put the resprayed trim pieces in the car but havent had the chance to take pics till todayExcuse the poor quality pics as they were taken from my moby Trim pieces - not perfect but im impressed on the results! I truly do feel like a hero lol Also put Top Fuel Gearknob on More than likely fake but or 6quid i cant complain!Some of my interior toys Exterior "mods" lolI thought the Disney Cars decal was appropriate as I am a fan of the cartoon plus the rear bumper could do with some 'rear end treatment' lolMinion keyring i purchased from my work and its little fit almost touches the floor - god knows what it will be like when its lowered lolThe observant amongst you will realise the dial surround is fake wood still but this will be another time where I can also change the clock bulb.Next on the pipeline is sourcing MG ZS 180 suspension and Eibach Lowering Springs or if I cant afford that end of this month it will be Rover 45 Team Heko Wind Deflectors.Also wanna dechrome and colour code the front grille and the rear number plate lip. Since my favourite colours green and dont want to paint it red or black the big 'H' will be green as well as the 'H' logos on the centre caps of the VTI EK Fanblades when I get around to sourcing them and after ive lowered the Civic.I will debagde the car at some point but the rear wiper will stay as its practical despite being fugly. Green decals will adorn the car starting with a Microsoft inspired '.... INSIDE' - which one will i get? Watch this space!So far so good and like it states topic name...SIMPLE!

onejdmcivic1984 Posted March 12, 2014 Author Share Posted March 12, 2014 Haha hows the collection of Hot Wheels going Tom?Benefits of working in a toyshop is that i get first dibs on the cars i want plus my 20% discount Luckily theres always a few jdm hot wheels cars but seem to be mostly american/fictional - latter i understand but could do with more european as well as jap stuff.Years ago i used to collect 1/18 autoart and could get a model from my work for around 50quid after discount. But nowadays 50quid gets you a decent minichamps 1/43 scale model! Atrocious how much they claim cost of metal is and we are supposed to believe thats the reason why models are over double the cost from the cost of models only 10yrs or so back?
