Preparing the Choro-Q RX-7 Body for conversion

I am still thinking about how am I going to mount this complicated body onto the Q-steer chassis, For one thing, see that front spoiler/ front skirt? That’s not with the body but with the Choro-Q chassis and there’s also a lot of space in front which means it might not hit the Q-steer chassis front mount since the body’s front side is too far from it.

So I think it’s time to fiddle with body molding or creating and modifying body shape using the same method as the one in real cars. Yup, but I’m not going to use the materials used for cars, it’s too heavy and might destroy the light plastic material. I can buy the epoxy in hardware stores but those are for hard plastics. Eventually I found these:

Tamiiya’s Epoxy Putty and Putty White. The epoxy putty it the one I’m going to use for creating the mount for the RX-7 and the White Putty is for finishing touches. I can also make my own bodykits which can be snapped on but that’s kind of too much for now. I’ll see how the project goes and then I’ll modify my own bodykits. (I will get another RX-7 and make it look like Keisuke’s RX-7!! hahahahah!)
