Normally we only show the nice and shiney deep dish rims, but for these damaged Techno Shadows we make an exception:
Techno Shadow repairs by Rodstyle

The Japanese company Rodstyle is a wheel repairshop and they transform the Techno Shadows in picture above into something nice and shiney like this again:

It may look a bit small for some deep dished Focus Racing rims but believe me, this small package does contain a full set of them:
Scale model 1/6th Focus Racing rims
I found these Aoshima Focus Racing copies for sale on Auctions Yahoo and they are meant to dress up your 1/6th GX71 scale model (which is IMO quite large).
Here you can see in an exploded picture how many tiny parts you will buy:
Scale model 1/6th Focus Racing rims
According to the seller these rims have been out of print for a long time now, so they are just like their bigger version also vintage wheels!
