Default How shall i rice up a dodge viper?

Yay i got my early christmas present. A Dodge Viper by Revell. Not what i really wanted, if you were going to get me a kit, at least get a japanese brand. But its really the thought that counts hehe.

So far my ideas are chameleon paint. Hope automotive paint doesn't damage this cheap ass plastic. I have HKS, Trust, Blitz the whole lot of
Japanese tuner decals. I might even put on Ralliart for the fun of it. I'm going to put on a custom fart can. Interior would probably a maccas theme, yellow, orange and red. Chrome rims...i want bling. I have a few spare wings which i'm going to put on.

Anyways, what are your ideas?

Hehehehe

42 gold plated dials inside. You know, the sort of dials that have no function at all. The gold (preferably fake though) is to attract the cheap bitches.

Put on all the wings you have!

At least 8 exhausts.

Oh, and a lot of subwoofers, LOL!

Don't forget the all so important VTEC sticker! The V12 just isn't powerful enough, you need a 1.5L VTEC

put a sopiler over another spoiler and paint the hood another color, not carbon-fiber looking, but paint it another color as if you wanted to make it look like carbon fiber.

you guys are so impatient.
these things take a month to build. i want it ricey but still i want it with quality.

plus revell kits are downright shit. no other shit beats this shit. i've got a lot of work to do before i even start painting. mold joins are everywhere. plastic spills are on almost every edge. the cabin is warped, that'll take heaps of glue and clamping.

the interior is done. this is how ronald mcdonald wants it.
is was a very rushed job hence the paint runs but who cares, it goes with dodgy build quality of the real thing. no gold dials but silver.
