Are you using a lot of droop or are those shocks VERY soft? Looks a little low to the ground to me. Having said that I dont own a 5 so could be wrong....
I painted my D90 shell last week. Heat gun to warm the shell and paint up. Then spray as usual. Heat gun again between coats and bring inside to cure. My mrs hates the smell of paint and she never said a word so cant have been bad...
I know where a relatively clean and probably cheap SD1 could be sourced from..... my old next door neighbour has one but as his (now sadly deceased) son bought it he has no clue what it is really....
I wouldnt ask for much. Just this little trio.

Found this on the bay. LOOKS FANTASTIC!!! Bit pricey mind.... but wow!
Soooo.....
Today I managed to get the d90 laquered. A few minor errors to polish out but overall extremely pleased with it. The colour has darkened down a little and its now even closer a match to bonatti grey.
As this now needs a few days to cure properly I started on the interior. Primed the whole lot then gave the main piece a coat of satin black which I can then detail. Seats and door cards are finished in tan leather with silver details. Need a few more colours to finish it.... Using Revell Enamel paint for the interior BTW
The cage arrived the other day and is pretty similar to the official Tomb Raider cage that comes with the 1:1. Im tempted to remove the extra post to make it near perfect but I think the cage will lose a lot of strength... Ill ponder this for a few weeks I think
