only if get the Hammer and have parts re-anodize... + he's about 1.5hr drive from home. so that means I have to take 1/2 day off from work to drop off and another 1/2 day to pick up.... I'll have to contact the anodizers again...it's been 3 years since I've been in there... keep you posted...

and you guys are complaining of high prices... Rainbowten just informed me:

" The kit is scheduled to arrive sometime in June or early July. Price is 65000yen and 10% off if pre-ordered. "

Thats approx. $630USD.

Hey, Alin showed me the box before you picked it up. I thought it would be a much showy looking box, don't you think?

yea..thought it would be a completely new box that can be taken to the track... I guess the cardboard sleeve is cheaper to print than new boxes...

If you think the price is too high for this car you can get it lowered easily,
Just be cancel your pre orders and don’t but it until its at a reasonable price, if the cars aren’t selling well hot bodies will have to see sense and lower the price.
They know there are a lot of people out there who will buy the kit right away almost regardless of price so they take advantage of you all by putting the price up, then after a couple of months they will drop it to what its worth
