Yes, you can use the smaller "Old Skool" wheels. That's what I put on my lowered Civics.

BC your cars lways look so great. how do you get the paintjobs so precise(ie the head/tail lights) and wht kind of paint do you use on the body

Bad Company 10-05-2003 02:30 PM

Thanks. On this body, I used Dupli Color automotive touch up in a rattle can. That was before I discovered how well the Tamiya hobby paints go on. That is what I used on the Savanna and convertable Firebird. As for the lights on this one, I just painted them on with a small brush and silver paint.

ok and are the tamiya paints spray on as well. also what do you use to cover the windows, i tried using blue painters tape that i cut but the paint seemed to bleed through the edges a little

Yes, the Tamiya paint comes in spray and that is what I use. I used to use 3M masking tape and it bled through also. Now I use Tamiya masking tape and it works great. If you've seen my blue stripes on my white Skyline, you see how nice the edges are and no bleed thru. Trust me, I don't work for Tamiya, they just make awesome modeling products. Also, when cutting your masking, use a sharp exacto knife.
