most of the red is decal. Except for the front bar (bloody hard to decal it) and the openings on the top of the bonnet is also painted.

NOTE. This car uses a different exhaust to the Pennzoil car but both are included in the kit. I accidentally used the one from the pennzoil car and had to cut the end off and put the correct end on
make sure you use the correct one

I really reaaly want to use bad language here but will refrain myself.

I woke up this morning with a funny feeling but couldn't put my finger on what it was. I got home from work and looked at my decal sheets, then it hit me, the carbon fibre decal for the back of the race seat was still on the sheet

Lucky I spent awhile painting the back of the seat so it is not so noticable.

I could kick myself for forgeting it, it's not like it's small

A job well done by the looks of things. Well done...i like it very very much. I always thought about buying this kit and you may have made up my mind now.

I bet you had some fun with the decal over the front bonnet vents

thanks for the compliments.

That front bonnet vent is actually painted as is the front bar (as per the kit) the decals around the wheel arches were hard enough
