If you can remember what wheels they are, that would be greatly appreciated. If not, I'll just continue my searching. Either way, thanks.

Looks even better mounted. Bitty did a great job with the included bumper foam and wing mounts.
it even comes in a the perfect legal weight of 95g ready to race.

WOW!
That's a sharp looking car! Just one question, how did you get the matte looking finish? I really want to get one of these bodies for USGT.

Tamiya, and Testors makes flat spray. I used testors flat spray on my euro truck, and the top of my miata.

Painted inside like normal.

Sprayed Spazstix matte clear outside after decals were applied. I also use tamiya matte clear from time to time. Both are great and never had any issues with other flacking off. On only spray a couple very light coats to get the effect I want.

I've only used the Tamiya flat clear, and it's pretty robust.

You've done a sensational job with the Agata. Well done.
