Anyone know any?

I just ordered a 2000 Mazda Rx-7 RZ from japan, but I dont really like some of the parts it comes with.

Any idea on where to get vinyl or parts for one? All I could find were rims and paint. And yes I searched online auctions to.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
 
Um, let's see.

Hobby Link Japan You'll find anything at HLJ, just keep searching through the site, i'm sute you'll find what you need.

Hobby Search Just about as great as HLJ. It's got more pictures to actually show you what you're getting, though. Scroll down the frame on the left until you get to the subcategory "Autos". What you're looking for would probably be under wheels and/or accesories.

And for future reference..;)

Scale Auto Style carries cast-resin body kits and photoetched metal GT wings. They just got started, though, so there are only kits available for the Tamiya S2000, Tamiya 350Z, Tamiya new Celica, and (someodd company) Nissan 180SX.


That should do it. ;)

EDIT: Seems Hobby Search is down..:(
 
Oh, and normally I'd refer you to the Automotive Forums, they have a great model car section where the guys there know just about anything there is to know about modeling. Although, AF seems to be down at the moment.

Yeah, and a general tip: USE PRIMER. It primes the plastic, giving the paint something to stick onto. Your paint jobs will thank you.
 
Ooh, airbrush. I'd like one, but I don't have the money. It's better then a can, you can mix custom colors. Got any pics?

A 350Z I did:

Looks good, I like it.

I will take a picture of mine once it's finished and I get some double A batteries for my camera.
 
hey... does that second site you posted take US dollars by any chance?

They have a huge selection, and a really nice one to.
 
They all take USD, I think.. You may need to get the money changed, though. (I shouldn't be talking, I've never bought from any of them.)
