      My newest project that I’ve started is trying to turn a Nissan Fairlady Z (350Z) into a BMW M Coupe. The lines are similar enough to work with, but I don’t know what kind of putty I should use. Does anyone have any suggestions?

      I’m thinking I should be able to do it pretty well, but the putty I used on the Lancer was pretty sticky and kind of tough to work with.

      That’s why I’m hoping for some input.

      How’d it work for you VR-4? I used it on my Evo (thanks for the compliment by the way Barto :smiley2:) and it was cool for that job, but I’m just not sure how well I could shape it to transform a Fairlady to an M Coupe.

      I ended up Squadron Plastic Putty for this project. I’ll let everyone know how it works once I start working with it.

      M Coupe,
      Give a read on these and see if this is what you’re looking for:

      They both look pretty good, DarkTari. I was looking for something more like the milliput, but I’m hoping this stuff from Squadron works as well.
