    Also the car is detailed with quite a lot of carbon fiber. It is found in the base of the chopped windshield, on the rear diffuser,which is painted to match the exterior color and on the nose, as well on the rear wing and as taillight covers.
    The side mirrors have been replaced by cameras and the plastic parts used for the front grilles have been replaced by real mesh, which also created more aggressive (and attractive) look.
    Since it is almost a worldwide joke, the most "wacky" custom cars owners are in Switzerland. Also many of the tuners, alto of other origin, are also based in Switzerland. This is why this barchetta also sports a custom emblem on its nose.
    Enjoy.

    Here are pictures of the complete model. The idea behind it (and mostly behind the chopped windshield) was to create a unique one off model with very aggressive stance. The color combo and the design were chosen to create a look like the car is a squatting animal. Kind of like the bull on the Lamborghini's emblem. This is also why the mirrors were eliminated. They would have broken out that fat ass squatting illusion also helped by the larger wheels in the rear.
    Over all I love the way it came out.

    Thanks.
    Rims are from autoart - i believe they the only brand that makes it like that.

    Very nice Justin!
    That would be my choice too.


    I've followed Lucky's footsteps and made my own SE, only difference is mine is silver and also an AA :)
    Wheels are from Maisto, but they still roll fine. Just got bored of the silver....

    that looks great ApeGen, but i noticed a detail that you missed.
    I missed it too when i made mine.
    The rear end needs to be black around the license plate, all the way out past the exhaust pipes.

    otherwise, awesome job.
    I'm surprised there hasn't been more people that have done this.

    BTW: I'm trying to revive this great post in hopes that we will see some new customs.

    I really want to convert one of my Kyosho Coutach LP500s' to a Koenig version - you know - the one with the skirts and intakes at the front of the rear wheel arches. I have a 1/16th scale Fujimi model kit of one but I need someone with the right skills to mold these skirts/arches in 1/18th scale! I keep thinking about having a go myself. This would make a great and easy transkit.

    +1, but the newer Verde Ithica doesn't excite me as much as the older one.

    I do not know if these count as 'custom' Lamborghinis, but they have all certainly been custom built for me... All based on 1:43 scale MR Collection kits, built by Garage43 in Singapore.
    From left to right: Genuine Arancio Borealis/black, Metallic blue/white, Pearl white/white, Genuine Verde Hydra/tan and the last has been converted from a LP5000S to the ex-Patrick Mimram QV, in Chianti Perlcolor.
