The carbon fiber just looks.... outta place. Not the paint job, but just overall look.
But otherwise, I like it! Nice job!

Looks good but I as well would've lost the carbon

Damn those countach's look dated now. I remember when I was a kid and they weren't that old they looked so awesome

Yeh, I think it's great too, and I have no problem with it being in this forum, as long as it's a 200mm body.

Wow, one of my favorites from back in the day, nice work

. That tape is used for smoothing away the seams for sheetrock, I should know this in more detail cause my dad is a contractor

Yeah, the countach was and probably still is my all time favorite super car. The carbon fiber effect was my first attempt. Once you see it on the NTC3, you haters may change yer tune

I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out..The rear got kind of messed up, but I have to cut out the hole for the engine anyway, so I'm not too worried about it. I'll post some pics with it on the car after I got all the mount holes and air/engine holes cut out.

The next body is going to be either the Lamborghini Gallardo or the Murcielago..gonna paint it up in that rust/orange color..

Alright folks here it is on the car..It's an NTC3 with an OS .18 in it...

Robbio4422, I see you live in Everett? I'm over in Lynnwood. Where in Everett do you live? I'd like to see the Lamborghini painted up like a cop car.. that would look sweet!!
