QUOTE(jun08 @ Oct 4 2008, 12:49 PM) any sifu can give some idea to modify d side bumper i'm still thinking wat material 2 replace it.... very good job on the tempo, but you may want to sand your paint so that its a bit smoother. i can see uneven surfaces, especially on the wheel arch. do you have any idea what you want to modify? if you want to replicate the d1 skyline then i suggest you look at hotworks diecast for ideas. hope it helps! like i said, i like your tempo!   i like my cars in pairs, this impreza is a bit lonely.

QUOTE(Percivale @ Oct 1 2008, 04:02 PM) The TL no longer includes the metal nameplate too.. a cost-cutting measure perhaps? QUOTE(westcoastbay @ Oct 2 2008, 12:39 AM) The metal nameplate that no longer comes with the TLs irks me. At 1st, I thought I was short-changed and some little kid took away the name plate. i did some homework and this is the last model that has the metal nameplate: TL0051 - Nissan Fairlady Z - 432 and this is the first model without: TL0052 - Xanavi Nismo Z all pictures from tomicafci.org Added on October 4, 2008, 9:31 pmQUOTE(pydrumerboy @ Oct 4 2008, 09:23 PM) Oh I see that there are some differences, notably the headlamp details, sidemiror and also the wheels and front grill.....thanks anyway...I am now officially going to collect tomica cars, particularly limited series.... woohoo! welcome to the club pydrummerboy, you have officially be poisoned This post has been edited by elgee: Oct 4 2008, 09:31 PM

QUOTE(zacktan @ Oct 4 2008, 09:41 PM) Nicely done Percivale, nice and simple userbar  indeed, well done on the userbar.  Added on October 4, 2008, 11:07 pmQUOTE(Percivale @ Oct 4 2008, 09:54 PM) Thanks! A true researcher.. are you equally this hardworking for your studies.. hee  that means the nameplate were excluded upon the start of the JGTC/SuperGT Series from TL0052 to TL0072. i am just hoping my studies are as easy as this.  and yes, the nameplate was also omitted from tomica limited subsequently from TL0073 up till now.
