    I can't tell from your picture. Did you also add red stripes on the wheels when you painted them?

    Nope, no red lip for the wheels
    I thought about it for quite awhile, but I came to a conclusion that the HW wheels' lips are just too thick compared to the 1/1; so it ain't going to come out realistic at all... thats just my opinion tho :)

    I was actually considering to repaint the wheels as well but decided to just wait for the SUPER ELITE FXX that'll be coming out. Supposedly even greater details than the Elite series. Black rims as well. :D

    SUPER ELITE.... what will they think of next??

    The Super Elite is about $300US
    And there are already pictures of it floating around the net.... it doesnt seem like its worth the price at all....

    I was thinking of picking up either a BBR or Kyosho Enzo soon. You reckon it might be better to blow the cash on either of those over the Super Elite FXX?

    BBR's enzo is the best. I'd take it over a hot wheels super elite fxx.

    The Elite FXX is the best value for money on the market IMO.
    The rumored 1/18 Kyosho Enzo is actually the BBR. The BBr has just been branded as a Kyosho to produce a Michael Schumacher Limited Edition which is going to be around $420.
