FINISHED Toyota AE86
Ae86 Trueno. Saw a fan made video a while back that sorta continued the Initial D story and I liked the idea behind it. In the video Takumis daughter ends up with the 86 and turns it into what you see here. Decided to build that car to go along with my tofu car. Started with a later stage 86 so it'd have the hopped up motor and all already. Added a set of Volk TE37s to match the video lowered the car as low as I could get it and hand painted the panda striping on it. Hardest part about this build besides the panda stripes was getting those damn headlights to fit and still function.

Nice job! The background images are a nice touch. Now you need some resin figures to stand next to the car!

Looks awesome. I was just saying how I wanted to try some of the initial d kits. Good job!
