Hi Peter, excellent job mate. You're right to be pleased with it.

To weather or not to weather?? Personally I've never been brave enough to take the weathering brush to a car build, all of mine are showroom shiny but you do have the dream team sat in it looking like they're working hard, maybe a subtle dusting around the bottom half would bring it to life without obscuring too much of your hard work.. Tricky decision though.

Light weathering, I think. Bit of muck in the wheel arches. Either way though, looks awesome.

 

[Guest]

I agree with gav ..... Bit of light weathering around the arches and a dusting up the back etc .... Not too much though as you've done such a cracking job on it, it would be a shame to cover it completely in road dirt.

***** from me.

P.s. thanks for the mojos
