thanks

its going to get its rear mould done but i ran out of paint and i will pick up a front lip at some point when i can find an original one in plastic.

turbo/supercharger is definately on the cards for the future.

kinda leaning towards supercharger. snort one looks awesome but i like how easy it is to transfer the raptor one to a newer car down the track

Looks good I take it the 400 is something to do with the car being a 4L

somthing like that yeah.

i wanted black plates for it a couple of years back and slimline ones dont really work on these cars in my opinion so i had to go for a personalised plate because you could get black in a full sized one.

so im going through whats available on the RTA website and fal400 was there and it seemed a reasonable description of a 4L falcon.

the stickers on the moulds are just continuing the theme
