Diecast's:Custom Project#7 Mercedes E class Coupe
Diecast's:Custom Project#7 Mercedes E class Coupe with Brabus monoblock


After the completion i decide to change the wheels of Norev to Monoblock from hotworks but the biggest problem was to make it functional with no hubs in the rims.

Unlike other manufacturer where we can change rims without dismantlement the car nut Norev has screw from inside for the rims so we have to open up till axles.

Screw to open fornt assembly for sterring and suspension

Open the base of the assembly with click

This the screw i was talking about

There is problem of the hotworks

As the brake caliper and disc radius are too small so i want to change with these shinny one

And for hubs i used these medical injections

I cut them to length and screwed from inside and painted the disc dark grey to make them even from shinny crome

The white part is free from disc and rotate which make it functional
