Started with a 1/24 Revell Wolkswagen Ti Samba Bus. Made multiple cuts to the body and chassis to fit the aftermarket widebody kit and tires from Black box which I printer myself.
I did all the carbon fiber decals myself with my own templates.
Prepped the model with Mr.Finishing Surfacer 1500 black. I laid a base coat or Mr.Color silver than used Mr.Color pure metallic Red and Black to go over the silver base coat. I painted the rims a combination of Revell chrome and AK Extreme Metal Gold. 2K automotive clear was used for the clear coat. I also 3D printed the roof rack and surfboard.
