This was the Testors boxing. Just a fun build that I did for a group build. Found out after I started it that the glass and tail light were cracked so I went ahead and went with a heavily used look rather than buying another kit or trying to source some glass or anything like that. So flat black paint and plenty of dirt splashes. I really like these Enthusiast kits and this one was no exception. I cut the trunk open so all of the great details that Fujimi includes could be seen. I also wired the engine but other than that it is out of the box. Engine is weathered also in case I ever get the urge to stick it into the car. Now back to more shiny stuff.

Man, Kyle...that is a good looking 911. The flat black sure looks good on it. That engine is killer looking. Did that engine stand come in the kit? That engine sure looks good sitting on it.

Thanks Gary! I never would’ve originally chosen flat black but it turns out it is a good color on a 930. And yes, the engine stand comes with the kit. I believe all of the enthusiast line have engine stands included in case you want to display the car and engine separately.
