A kind woman.....
I would like to take this chance to thank an employee at my local RS for "donating" some otherwise "junk" to a worthy cause (my kids 
).
While looking for a good deal on ZZSE's, I was given some misc. parts and pieces of some gen 1 xmods. I think I have enough items to make 2, if not 3, complete running cars. She didn't want them to be thown out if someone like me, a tinkerer, could put them to use. I think
was literally the look on my face. So my two daughters, ages 6 & 7, will be bashing & crashing their own cars pretty soon. (Right after I fix them up, and lay down some "girlie" paint schemes)
I have one working already, and just need to solder some wires to have another running. My youngest wanted the RSX, and my other daughter chose the Civic. So my dad took the GTR and I will be preping the NSX for bashing to use on my gen 1, instead of my camaro body that I want to stay in good shape.
So on with the pics............these are after I semi-organized the parts.
these are larger files and show the job I'll be in for.

I know they may not be considered "pimped" when I'm done with them, but the definate thing is the RSX has to have purple on it, and the Civic has to have pink. (I'm thinking of darker metallics) Hopefully you guys can give some suggestions on some simple looks or themes for the paint.
