Love it! I really want to get me one of these and mod it to what my FR-S will be.

@Michael Do it!

I'm not a fan of the premade RB body, but the add on pieces look great.

I might wind up selling my RB set. Was $100 for the whole thing (insane, I know). I cut it up, and haven't had the desire to paint it and put it on yet. I'd need to run too much offset for my tastes. Maybe as a shelf queen I would.

Did you get the RB body or the add ons? I still haven't ordered the paint for mine. It gets more expensive with every color.

I need Gunmetal, Smoke, Translucent Purple, and I am contemplating flat black polycarbonate paint instead of regular flat. I paint both interior and exterior.

I also have to figure out what I want to do for my spoiler. I don't feel like building a small vacuum former. It's the sheet retention frames that are annoying.

The finer parts where never made but I will have them by the end of this month.

The paint for the new body is on the way. I decided to go with a blue tint instead of purple.

The tint is in the garage.

The dash isn't finished of course.

The exhaust is missing it's tips.

I have to clean up the red on the tail lights a little. In the picture, it is just lit with a regular LED, but it will have an SMD behind it. The same goes for the side markers.

The exhaust is adjustable so I'll bring it out if needed. I can also raise it.

Update?
And what would it take to get those CAD models of the bits?

Sorry for the lack of update. I'm away for the summer so of course I won't be working on this till I get back late August. I already have everything in place though for when I get back.

What would it take? I went through a bit to get them designed and made properly. Plus there is still room for improvement which would made installation of the badges a hell of a lot easier. I would be willing to sell packs, but I'm not giving the drawings away.

Sell packs as in packs of the parts so people could make mini me's with parts you made?

boredom.is.me · 07-24-2014, 06:23 PM

Pretty much all the scale features.

Front grill
Toyota T badges
Piston badges
Antenna (I would be able to make any length)
License plates and mounting brackets
Reverse and 4th brake light bucket
3rd brake lift bucket
Wiper blades

Maybe even the rear view mirror if desired.
Maybe even the TRD style spoiler, but that would be made from a different process.

boredom.is.me · 09-20-2014, 12:22 PM

This needs to get out of the garage!!! I have the light controller on order which will take about two weeks. I should have this thing rolling by then. I sadly can't find my badges, but I needed to get some other stuff, so I'll update the parts for easier and more secure installation. I also have to redo my headlights housing since the 1:1 is now blacked out (mostly).

boredom.is.me · 09-25-2014, 12:40 AM

I have the updated badges and 3rd brake light on the way.
