Cool

Maybe you should give more detail as to what you are looking to replace. For all I know http://www.rpiparts.com/ could be what your looking for.

Try calling Tamiya direct, you can contact them on 1-800-tamiya-a
They have a replacement parts department which may well be able to help you.

If it is replacement parts for plastic kits that you are referring to, then you can contact Hobby Link Japan parts department via: parts@hlj.com.

Re: Replacment Parts

making one really isn't that hard, as long as the basic shape of the glass is maintained. Just heat up some clear styrene and pull it over the windshield evenly on all sides. I did an old mpc kit and it looks better than the box glass

I think this is your best bet, i ordered some parts recently & as usual the service by them was top notch. Just make sure when e-mailing them that the description of what you want is in detail, i mean proper parts numbers etc from the instuction sheet.
