This is infuriating, your tempting me into contacting Fibrelyte for a Masami lower plate Hyeong, and having a bash at this myself, looks FUN!

the red body arrived and i tried it on my runner. i can see how it would look when finished. i'll try yellow body as well, then the original color later

i had to cut and trim the epoxy parts more than once. too small or wrong hole positions you know.

Are these peices support plates to go inside the rear bulkhead? I did this on mine - did I tell you about it & give you the dimensions? I can't remember?

P.S; the shells look great - Takatani's design looks superb in red! I see your painter managed to pick out that all the 'drips' at the ends of the 'splatters' in pink - which is not necessarily the colour of the adjacent pattern :wink:

Hyeong that looks much nicer than the original with the green background.

Truly eye candy!

spent my Sunday with making a top deck
DerbyDan sent me this template and a CAD file months ago. i already tried a top deck when i got the file but my first job wasn't good enough. the result i got today is pretty much good to me. maybe i'm running with the parts i made and build a WCS shelfer with the original parts coming to me
