Mclaren wheels on RM Mercedes

hobby shops in hk are very funny, they always take apart RTRs and sell them in pieces (actually, no one would like to buy a RTR here)
so i picked up a set of Mclaren wheels (HKD$25/7.8 = USD$3.2)
installed them on my Merc, turned out very good, here're some photos(combined in one)

i also picked up a set of AE86 black rims for hkd$20, still dunno where to use it, haha~

awsome, is that the iwaver body that u've painted?
i think i should go fetch one more set, they look so good to me haha~

by the way arch, did u ever see Topcad alloy RM/MM motor mounts?
they are only USD$10 here in HK($80HKD)
$10 inculdes both alloy motor mount AND the motor head sink~
that's less that half the price of other brands~ maybe the shop here should have some in stock.

very nice motor mount.

Those rims look nice on your R34 Arch, they look lighter than the McLaren's wheels usually look though.
