Audi R8 repaint -fantasy livery

Postby jhrico » Tue Oct 11, 2016 1:23 pm

Got this R8 from my cousin Scott :-)(headhunter99) when I bought his collection :-). It had some decals, but no wing and only boring gray. So I stole my daughter's nail polish and in washroom breaks came up with this fantasy livery. Now I just need some mirrors and a front lip. And my daughter to speak to me again! :-)

Thanks! The supports are a couple of steel pins bent to shape. Very sturdy unlike wire.

Looks real good with the wing. If you managed to get your wife to talk to you again after you bought Scott's collection (300+ cars IIRC), getting your daughter to talk to you again over nail polish should be a breeze. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Cheers

BTW. I found the wing for the silver Kyosho 911 body if you got that in the deal.

:laughing-rolling: good memory and ideas, dodge! "Look, gorgeous, your mommy forgave me and I did something much, much, much worse! (Don't ask and don't remind her, ok?) Also lookee here, dodgefarmer says the same! So you must...." :laughing-rolling: :banana-dance: :music-rockout:

Thanks for the wing too! How do we go about it, I pm you my home address and you your paypal one?
Thanks!
