Love it! Followed the WIP and figured it would turn out well. Never thought that the crazy wide wheels could be pulled off on such a small car but they work!

Wow, for some reason i didn't pay attention to the progress thread, but once i opened this finished thread i was stunned. Beautiful job, all the detail work is just perfect. Not overdone, like a euro should be!!! Also top notch work on the grill and good wheel choice. Keep them v-dubs comin!

Mr Deedlit,

Congratulations for this new member to your collection. You gave a "living touch" to this simple kit. Very good job sir!

The only thing which I am not completely agree is at the top... I should use putty to cover "sunroof" lines or open it

Excelent job Deedlit (just curious: what does your nickname mean?)

Nice work Xavier, and as usual verry close to the 1/1 scene.

Just one thing: IMO you should have filled the gap between the grille and the body (next to the headlights)
