Lexus LFA

Scale:
1:24
Status:
Completed

Managed to pick the kit up on eBay for half the normal price. After researching on the internet, came across a version Lexus released with a carbon fibre finish which I had to try and replicate. Used Tamiya TS6 Matt Black and it came up a treat. Rest of the model painted as per instructions (Gloss White finish suggested) as I thought I red interior went well with the black matt finish. Only other difference was painting brake blocks red to try and give it a more sporty feel. Apart from the rear light, didn't quite go to plan, I'm really happy with the end result.

I found a photo of this car on the internet in it's natural carbon fibre finish, so I tried to replicate that look. I don't think it turned out too bad.
