964 | hot chocolate

Hi friends,
a little 964 model @ 1|24 bought from the beginning to be changed and stealing its wheels is finally finished!
The story is too long and has really been a challenge for me because I have to redo the paint 4 times due to various reasons! The worst experience about painting models I ever had in my life.
But finally I finished this model and satisfaction is really high.
Shortly describing the modifications :
Exterior:
- widening wheel arches with 2mm on each side
-wide side skirts
-front rubber blade
-front bumper air intake
-smoked front turn lights
-removal of the centre of tail-lights and its replacement with an air exhaust grille
-shaved rear skirt
-shaving of the exterior rear view mirrors and replacement with a little retro side driver
-shaving of wing turn lights
-German registration (from an Ferrari 328 GTB Hasegawa kit)
-shaving of a fuel door wing
Mechanical / wheel trains
-Speedline wheels ( for Tamiya )
-lowering
-front road tires and rear slicks
-"black washing" and engine painting for a more realistic look.
Interior:
-brown leather straps
-steering wheel with controls

panamera | dodg(e)y style

Several years ago, if somebody told me there are a four doors luxury front engine sedan called Panamera and made by Porsche, I would look him as being a good humour person.
But if we remember the year 1988 when Porsche presented the 989 concept, I would think twice.
Now, in 2014 the Panamera has its celebrity and its place in the automotive history.
There are several model makers who made it at 1|18 as well as 1|24.
One of the most affordable is made by Maisto at 1|18^th scale.
Mine has suffered some modifications (as I use to do) and he has now a look of real VIP car.

Exterior:
-23 inch Dodge rims

-stanced
-some minor details
Interior:
-beige/brown leather simulated interior

-full carpeted interior
-pillars, doors trims and roof cover simulated in brown leather
-dash board covered in the same “brown leather”
ICE:
-navigation system and gadgets simulated

-minor details

Mk IV | kult mat blue

Welly makes some good DieCast cars reproductions for not very high prices. The VW cars especially the Golf-s are in its panel since long time ago.

Mk IV Variant (the station wagon body of the well known hatcback) is very good proportioned scale model, but, unhappily, apart the openable front doors there are any feature.

The model I present you, are a custom who has as base this DieCast model. The mods are the flat paint, BBS rims, front and rear lip, Audi A3 interior painted also in flat white badge-less front grille, exhaust pipes and a tone of otersa little details who make the difference.

I hope you enjoy:
