w hen suspensin was more or less repaired , it comes time to think how to make wheels. I decide to use fujimi wheels and brakes.

first i made holes in front suspension:

then i try wheels, which come too much out, so some surgery on disk suports were needed:

on rear part i have glued brakes directly on what left from original supports, and then pushed through axle

after that i made hole through diferential, so that it can work as support also

and then it comes time to check how everything looks with wheels

brake disks ready and everything painted

chassis and suspension ready and glued together, this is test how evrything goes together:

engine painted and glued to chassis:

Now, when BMW is on his wheels, is time to think how to proced. I already decide, because of missing original wheels, that i will built imaginary BMW M8, so I need to modifie front bumper.
This is how i start:

this was my first approach to bodybuilding, so....

Great work so far, especially the color :ok:

It seems to be that the previous owner was a bit overextended with the kit,
great thing to give it a "second life" :smilie:

hi, well, even with two week old daughter, it is possible to find some time to modeling

this is how it looks inside before operation

new carpet, but as it isn't in right colour:

i put some dark grey sprey in,

this is how it looks after some work, i'm not realy satisfied, but considering how it was done before, its ok. i also have some problems with masking tape, so.......

and some testing , i saw that colour is not uniform, but i should live with that :motz:

tako, to je za danes vse

Hallo Borut :wink:

BMW are not my favorite cars.

But your work makes it looking very fine. :ok:
