Complete Custom Hotwheel Mitsubishi Lancer Evo X Police Car

As promised, my custom Mitsubishi lancer Evo X Malaysian police car known as Helang Lebuhraya (Highway Eagle) completed. These casting are Hotwheels in 1/64 scales.
Added custom include:
custom make side mirror, roof light, rear steel muffler and
custom make roof antenna

of all the custom kit above, the roof light design is my best achievement so far which are built from scratch and quite satify with the result although not achieving 100% similarity to the actual scales.

here's my Helang with hotwheels original wheels set..

WIP Hotwheel Lancer Evolution X Custom Malaysian Police Car

It's been a year already since i've started my blog last year on the month of may and how time pass by without realised it. Thanks everyone for the support and some very good comments, this will motivate my custom work for further improvement,

Right now, new title header and my new WIP on our very own national highway patrol police car known as Helang Lebuhraya or Highway Eagle Malaysian police car. The actual car are the latest Mitsubishi Lancer Evo X.

and i've selected Hotwheels Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X to start my project. Here's the WIP pictures..

after paint remover, the casting are wash and left in the sun to dry..
new primer coats applies..

after that all the casting are now touch up with painting on the rear light..

now for the side window frame with painted flat black, pictures shown before and after..

all the decals applies here..

rear view..
now for the interior as in original plastic grey colour..need to be sprayed with black colour coating

the casting are now installed with custom made side mirror..
the original wheels are masked and sprayed white all over..
these are the result, all white inner rims ..
the interior are now in black colour..
finally,the most difficult part, to built the roof light from scratch. After trying some prototype for half a day, i've managed to construct the roof light using transparent pvc sheet , cut to size and glue them together to the plastic T joint and ready for clear blue brushing and some clear coating.

the final touch up, ready for installing the roof light on the evo X..

Hotwheel Custom Civic Street Tuner 2010

Just for this time, my hotwheels custom civic 1/64 scales are without tempo or side logo but do not fooled by the plain racing red and black colour on it. Unlike my previous custom civics before, i'm concentrate on the body custom kit only.

view from side, looks normal plain.........

and my new addition, custom built rear steel exhaust muffler (100% metal and steel)...which took me about half a day on this idea and one hour to built it from the scratch.Thanks for looking!
