Nevertheless some remarks to the fotos (... enjoy ...) Interior: resin seat, dash, steering wheel, blackboxes, cage made of several parts, inner door panels, vacuformed console, styrene firewall, ... Exterior: resin front w/ splitter, front wheel wells, skirts, 2 rear wings of different length, mirrors, rear lights (with vacuformed glasses, foil as a help to surround the windows with black, wheelnuts, ... etched parts: just look - the rear wing can be fixed in different positions !!!!!!!! disk breaks - several parts Tires, wheels - alu- w/ styrene inserts, breaks, wheel center screw, fire extinguisher, fabric material for seat belts Further 4 sheets of 1:1 reference fotos, building instructions, ... Here are some photos of Scaleproduction of the building process ... one more remark: I have one transkit in my hands - and it won´t be the only one !!!!

Re: Lamborghini Murcielago R-GT - Scale Production transkit - Kit Review
look good. They made a good job.
I just wish they would make a transkit option for the prototype GT-R (which is street with different sides) Would have been a cheaper tk and I would have been more interested (not because it's expensive, just because I don't like those side skirts) There is a lot of putty work to do on the front, but it will make a nice model

Re: Lamborghini Murcielago R-GT - Scale Production transkit - Kit Review
All merged in together. Whew, I earned my mod pay today...
Does the kit include the correct front lights? The rears are there but can't see the fronts in those pictures. |

Looks great, but I never really knew how to cut the Vac formed clear parts.

Yes, you're right. Probably SP did not include any headlights because each team has a different configuration, and regarding the engine I think it's possible to do something using the block from the kit, not easy, anyway.
