Kookie's 510

Alright so I picked up a cup racer and decided to make a drifter out of it. Why you ask? Because it was free.
Anyway, did the camber mod to the front upper a-arms and gave the chassis a splash of color.
Got the body in last night and got her trimmed up (waiting on stealth mounts to get here)

Still not sure what color I will paint it and need to get some wheels ordered along with a few other things.

that looks so cute haha
ta03r 1.7%
ta03fs 1.8%
i used to have one of these. they look real pretty (the 510 body) but that chassis wont drift well. even with a FOW.
Cute and pretty? Not quite the critiques I was going for but hey to each is own lol. I've read it's not that great of a drifter but I got it for free and I dig 510s so it works for me.

Should go good with the wheels I actually am going to end up with (tqrcracing.com didn't have the mesh ones in stock, contrary to what the website said)

Also got MST GA26s to wrap around the Mikunis
