Very nice, love the colour you've picked for it. The convertible looks awesome, keep up the good work!

Hi all,

Small update, I added styrene and putty to make the boot more even and correct to the convertible version.



Just needed some painting and cleaning.

for one reason or another I don't prefer the SLR McLaren's. I do like the convertibles though. Keep up the good work.

I set this project aside and waited for it to die due to lack of motivation . But, SMS came out with Full Monty template set for the SLR, so I decided to shell out 30 bucks and bought it to make an out-of-the ordinary Full CF SLR Roadster .

Unfortunately the SMS template is not correctly-sized and incomplete. You might be better off making your own template yourself.

It is not completely done yet, I still need to make a convincing rear deck.

I used Tamiya tape to make template for parts that SMS did not accounted for

the half rear deck decal is not yet applied

The front bumper used 8 pieces of CF

Passenger door


I hope you all like it. C&Cs are appreciated.

Sweet! I like this a lot.
Excellent idea here. I just saw a convertible in Heavy Hitters magazine.
Nice!

I am a giant Crabon Fiber fan too.
Excellent.
