Anyhow, so far your builds have looked great! Keep it up.
Thank you! If you don't need original bumpers you can contact SANDSUPERSTORE at rc10talk.com. He makes OT-93 repro bumpers.

Also, although a NIB kit is a nice thing to have, there's always that question of whether to build it or leave it un-touched in the box...
You really nailed it there man. I have a Kyosho Triumph N.I.B that I will build some day. Probably with a repro body and repro decals and save the originals.

Thanks!

They were mounted on a Optima Mid a bought in used condition from Germany. One of many donor cars for my projects.
