MyAlbum - model kit vs. original
This kit was repainted from silver to this beautiful blue
With it's original
Only the flashlights aren't white
After the Polo was sold, a Peugeot 206 cc took it's place. I changed the interior to black and painted the rubber guard in the bumpers and the sides in body color.
...and added the washers for the head lights.
Only the rims are different. The top is movable. No pictures of it with closed top.
The BMW 750 of my brother in law. At the outside I put only correct license plates on it.
THe most changes took place on the interior. From an ugly brownish thing to a nice black like leather.
This is the starting stuff.
The headliner was brown. Like the whole interior. Ugly I think.
Headliner in the right color
Door panels before
Door panels correct.
The interior like it came.
Much better. This is how it should be.
The dashboard got a little touch up.
Redone and back in it's place.
That's it.
That's the producers idea of a engine compartment. That goes better.
The engine only black plastics.
The plastics in the engine compartment are black now.
Sometimes I'm wondering about the colors of the parts (silver engine paneling).
The exhaust system and engine paneling a little friendlier
