1/24 Peugeot S2000 / Fiesta S2000 - Belkits

[RacingDecals]

It looks like the postal rates from Europe to outside Europe are around 20 - 35 Euros, it depends on the country. From spain it is around 22 Euros

Japan store are overpriced (thanks to Studio27 that take his cut) and the only other store I know carrying it is HiroBoy, and shipping is a killer there.

Hobbyeasy is selling Belkit kits.

Yes, different bodyshell. Have a look at Belkits website, you can print off the build instructions for both Kits.

Renaissance released some resin parts for the Fiesta WRC.

Looks nice but, are those parts really a problem in the kit? What's the problem exactly if it's the case?

There is a problem with the hood, the S2000 and WRC ones are different but Belkit used S2000 one on its WRC.
The air vents and PE grilles are larger, so Renaissance hood is usefull to get a perfect accuracy, or you need to enlarge the vent nad make your own grille from PE.

Rear wing in two parts is only made to simplify CF decals apply.

door handles I don't see what's wrong, maybe not long enough ?

Another solution (the way I choose) is to enlarge by yourself the kit part and buy the PE transkit instead of the hood transkit, so you'll have brake disk and a few other things more and no need to cut off the hood and fit resin part.




Anyway rear window is completely false so you will never have a totally accurate model without rebuilding the rear window.

Front face requires some attention too as some holes have to be drilled or relocated depending on the version you precisely build.
here is the mod on the Henning Solberg's car I started some weeks ago.

If you use Renaissance decals for Novikov´s Fiesta you will understand why.

Aah Ok I see !!

Thats a shame, I am planning on building the Novikov version so it looks like I will need the new door handles.

Rallymaster is correct on the required hood modification, but at least with the Novikov rear spoiler you can use the kit variant as he painted it white!
