Another small update.It's taking me some time to do all the little odds and ends,longer than I thought.I got the bodyshell mounted onto the chassis and added some of the remaining decals.The rear bumper was a pain.A strong join was needed as it (and the sills) hold everything in place.But there just isn't enough of a location point to get a good join without glue oozing out of the join line.I made a reasonable job of it,though I ended up using some stretched black sprue in the join line to fill the slight imperfections.Same story on the side sills but these were easier to just touch in with a little thinned paint.The homemade decal for the rear number plate worked well.Rear just needs the lights and boot catches and aeriel on the boot lid.I've also got to add some red squares on top of the white squares to give the correct look to the Marlboro boards (like on the rear doors)
I used the Scalemotorsport etched vents on the bonnet sprayed white and red and was impressed by them.The Tamiya mesh would probably have sufficed but these were all pre cut and ready to use so made the job easier.
The rear spoiler and roof vent were a very easy fit.
Just needs the front bumper and a few associated bits and it's almost finished.Possibly tommorow.
