WRX AWD Subaru "Scooby"

Subaru WRX AWD.

Here I have added the wheels and tires. One note here: I slid on the back wheels, and then I couldn't get them off without braking the rear end assembly. So, now the rear disc brakes don't have any detail painting done to them

I also had issues with getting the front wheels on, and broke the front suspension. I was able to put it all back together, but next time I will do this another way.

I recommend double checking all the holes where the wheel axles slide in, removing any paint, maybe even oiling them a bit to make the slide on easy. And don't put the wheels on until you are sure you want them on. Getting them back off is not really an option.

 

 

 

 

 

While not accurate for a race car, on this street version, I wanted the seats to be red. I painted them gloss red, them hit them with some Testors Dullcote.

The kit included some decals to replicate a carbon fiber pattern on the back of the seats. I was unable to get the decals to lay to my satisfaction, so I painted the back with a color resembling metal.

The decals for the seatbelts went on fine, and I like the way they look on the red.
