Wow - If you could find that Rajimagazine sticker Jose' that would be great!! I assume thats the japanese writing that I've transposed for the Yatabe Arena Japanese Logo down the Right handside?..... I had wondered what it meant! It was you that supplied the Yatabe stickers... its a shame that they are larger that the original ones on Masami's car. By the way I think the rear bulkhead cap on my car came from your e'bay auction?

@ Reggie if you could supply that green Reedy decal that would be 'diamond'!!

Talking of decals for this car... a freind is using Vecta Works to try & drawn up the Takatani logos... so if he comes good I might be able to get those re-produced.

Stunning, absolutely stunning Dan! A lot of hard work there, but boy has it paid off!

Has to be one of the best replicas ever, that shell is awesome, if I didn't know any better, I'd say that was Masami's car!

Your paint job somehow managed to avoid all the tired clichés like tribals, flames, paint blobs, carbon fiber techniques, etc. Good job. 8)
I'd hardly say it was unique or imaginative...... i'm trying to replicate this car :wink:

Thanks for your kind comments on this car guys :)

Yeah, but yours is better just cause it doesn't belong to Reg. :lol:

No seriously, simply awesome!

The 'splash' decal is the one just above the Associated logo on the left hand side of Masami's shell...

Its also the same as the one on the chassis of this mighty fine JRX2

P.S thanks for the compliment :)

Gutted! :| Hey-ho never mind - its only the splash one that i'm missing with regard to 'Novak' decals - although i'm not 100% sure if the Pink one I have on the R/H side of the shell is correct colour-wise or if its one of those odd tricks of the camera from the images I have of the original car.
