Yeah man, your shits getting clean. That first picture threw me too, but I love that color. Nice work.
I tell you what, that's looking so clean, you might as well finish it up get some kind of interior going in there.

thanks dave, it's great hearing compliments from guys like you.
as for the interior... it's really hard because of the internal dual cell... nothing fits and I don't have any credit cards.... BTW the extra kit was made of gameboy cases!
thanks for the compliments, all!

thanks and I know what you're talking about with the wheels. The right rear actually does not have all of that silver coming off in real life. I thought that puttin my dubs on would be cool, but removing/replacing the front rims is a real PITA with the dual cell!

I tell you what I did with my targa topped Skyline, because the PCB was poking up in that one too.
Just get a thin piece of plastic like the stuff you get from Microsizers, Zip Zaps, and the ZZ body kits. Paint that up, tape it inside the body. Then if you really want to top it off, go find a cheap die cast to snag some seat backs, steering wheel, rollcage, dash board, or whatever else you can find, and glue that stuff to the plastic.
If if the PCB is sticking up a little, it should be thin enough to flex. From what I can see in the pictures it shouldn't be a prob.
Oh and BTW I'm just trying to help out, it still looks really nice even without an interior.
