The model of the car (prod. in 2006) that I had during 2006 - 2010.


 
The model initially. 


I split the model. The model was much more in detail compared to conventional 1/43 models. This might be because this is Honda's authentic accessory.


stripped the whole paint.
 
I cleaned the whole body.



I painted the body and the roof (Honda B 523 P). My car did not have a sunroof  so I had to delete the model's sunroof by painting over.




I painted the insides to my car's cream tone.
 


I assembled the inner tub.



1- Hard to paint parts, the mirrors. Dual color and a paint for turn signal...
2- I removed the mirror plates and placed on wax paper to protect the sticky backing.
3- I made the masking for the turn signal with masking tape, and the mirror body with "UHU Patafix" and applied the primer.
4- After applying the final coat, I removed the masks and applied clear coat.



While dismounting the model, one exhaust outlet jumped to somewhere in space and got lost. So I made a silicon mold from the other and cast a new one from polyester putty.



I assembled the model. The photos of the finished model...
