Thank you for your nice words!
Before preparing the body, I corrected some problems with the headlight buckets and rear air fins.
After doing a test fit, there are very large gaps between the headlight buckets and the body. I had to fill the gaps with Tamiya´s light curing putty (I just love that stuff, you can fill and sand in just a few minutes):
I separated Studio27´s rear fins to obtain a more realistic detail:
I used Scale Production´s Audi R8 GT3 rear window instead of the included window (much better detail). I checked the window fit at this moment:
Now, on to the body! Studio27 did a great job with the body. The detail and proportions look good. I only needed to work a little on the panel lines and sprayed Tamiya´s gray primer as a guide coat:
I corrected some minor imperfections, but in general, the body is very clean and very easy to work with:
I sprayed the body with Tamiya´s white primer. Next time I will show you the body in color! Thanks for watching!
