Re: BMW Z4 M-COUPE Dörr-Motorsport

Frank - is that "flat black" BMW here in the thread a slot car body?? it has significant detail in the body not found in the Fujimi Z4 - where did you get the body? - John

Thanks Mike - sorry didn't see the first post where Frank had put the link for the decals - I'm going blind in my old age and my reading glasses are getting stronger and stronger in magnification every year - lol - John

Re: BMW Z4 M-COUPE Dörr-Motorsport

Great start, Frank. You really love to paint your models flat black this year...

I received my ScaleProduction Decals last week. Great stuff, high precision print, almost no flash around the individual decals.

Oh... and somebody told me that the SP carbon decals are now printed by Cartograph!

I'm going to build the Fujimi Z4 GT3 in Dörr livery.

Re: BMW Z4 M-COUPE Dörr-Motorsport

Sorry Frank didn't know what schuco was - we don't get those diecast here in the USA that I know of. I have two of the Fujimi Z4s but I like the venting on the schuco diecast better. Thank you for clarifying things for me. You guys in Europe and Germany get some really cool slot car and diecast racing cars. - here in the USA it's all NASCAR - John

Re: BMW Z4 M-COUPE Dörr-Motorsport

got the same die cast from Mondo Motors here in italy. nice stuff (not wonderful, but nice, yes).I got 2 of theme.The way to make it nice is little bit long, cause in too many parts (imho mostly the many air vents around) looks too thick and hard to open with dremel.

Planned to fix it all and cast in resin (think is easyer to work) but never found a livery giving me the correct "inspiration", as the nice ones with new z4s.

If you do make a resin cast of the diecast BMW Z4 - I will want you to make one for me too - I'll pay - John

There is also a livery from "pit walk" MARC VDS - John
