Replacement Rims for AMT F&F3 Mustang

thingiverse

The rims included with AMT's Fast and Furious 3 "Tokyo Drift" 1967 Mustang plastic kit are far from accurate to the movie. To correct this, I plan to swap them out for replicas that more closely resemble the GT-7 rims used in the film. I've made sure these new rims will fit seamlessly with the kit's 1/25 scale tires, which I carefully pressed onto the model after painting them a sleek silver finish. My recreation of the 7-spoke rims features an internal edge and holes that were too small to print at actual scale, so I had to make some adjustments to accommodate their tiny size - including the lug nuts. The kit's brake rotors should also fit perfectly, but I needed to trim off the caliper to ensure a smooth connection. By scaling two of these rims down to 23mm (for the rear) and two to 21mm (for the front), they should fit comfortably on my model.
