What's your car look like? I'm doing a replica of my car, and am happy to help with where to get stuff and what to do.

Your two rovers will be easy.
Try and get yourseld a Tamiya Monte Carlo Mini shell. Its the most accurate looking shell and has real chrome bumpers too.
The paint will be available as stock colours from the Tamiya range, so use that.

They come with the monte carlo kit.
That body kit gives you two grilles (road and rally) and two sticker sets (road and rally) so you can make just a road car from that. Thats what I did with mine.

If you can find the colour have a go at painting, if it fails then cover it up with the vynil.
