Great choice Mike. So many things to do with this kit paint wise. Does this kit come with different sets of rims. I build an eclips a while back that included three options.

So as far as the "Fast & Furious" MOTM goes, its something to do with any one of the Fast & Furious cars in any one of the shows? I'm not sure I understand the MOTM this month for November.......?
This is one, I won't know a lot on BUT will enjoy seeing everyone version of "Fast & Furious" builds!

Mike,
so the actual look of the "Carbon Fiber" is a decal you just put over a painted black hood to the car?

There isn't a carbon fiber decal's I simply just painted the hood black to give it the look of carbon fiber.

Thanks Mike from a distance it looks as tho it had a Carbon Fiber hood decal, (I know you can buy them) so. was just wondering if it may have come with one in the kit!
NICE work so far!
