I just purchased the Fujimi LeMans 69 GT40 and must have gotten an old kit because the decals are yellowed. Does anyone know of a source for replacements, either the Fujimi or aftermarket? Alternatively, does anyone know where to buy white decal paper in case I need to make the roundels myself?
Thanks.
Thanks.

Do a search for yellowed decals, there is a quick and easy solution to rendering them white again ;)

VRM is making some roundel decals soon. Speedline decals has some alternatives for the GT40's that are made by Cartograf.

Thanks! I didn't see the Speedlines for the Gulf but the other options look nice. I've tried the "taping the decals to the window to sun bleach them" thing but it never seemed to work for me.
I'm considering painting the roundels if I can't come up with a decal solution.

Never works for me either,taping them in the window!! If you have a circle template you can cut the roundels to the correct size from artists low tack frisket film and airbrush them instead.

Thanks, Steve.
I purchased a new set from Indycals.
