Here it is !!!!! I've finished the body and with the Renaissance CF decals !!! Yeeeeeesssssss .
   But the model isn't finished yet !!!  Now I'll put Studio 27 CF decals on the underpanel, in the engine bay and on the monocoque. I'll juste make a little "break" by starting the engine in order to don't have a CF decal overdose !!!!!  Thanks to c&c !!! Lionel P.S : I'll use TS-13 for the clear coat.

Re: Full CArbon Body Enzo
Outstanding work!
Are you sure about that TS-13?!?!? Possible but risky! Take a look at mickbench's Cobra 427 with acrylic clear - bloody awsome and without the risk of "China Syndrome" on all your decal work

Re: Full CArbon Body Enzo
TS-13 isn't bad and I used it over SMS CF decal without problem.
It's always human error that cause problem with TS-13.

Re: Full CArbon Body Enzo
You are right Vric that it's "human error" as you put it
 But it's also true that, if the potential to melt weren't inherent in the clear itself, it wouldn't happen. After all, arsenic can be therapeutic so long as the human using it doesn't make an error After all the effort put into this model, all I'm saying is be wary, be aware and that - as far as I know - acrylic clear seems to give as good reults without the risk. Not my call to make, just my friendly 2cents - peace to all etc etc

Fantastic CF work. Looks stunning.
As far as TS-13 is concerned and there was actually a thread started not long ago about the merits and also dangers of TS-13, I actually shy away from the stuff in regards to clearing decals with it. OK, I’m no muppet when it comes to painting, as it’s a stronger area for me (still make mistakes though) but I treat TS-13 with a lot of respect. I had to strip an entire model body once for not using that stuff correctly. I’ve also heard the horror stories about how it reacts with decals, EVEN if applied lightly. As you have a model car body covered entirely with decals, and CF decals at that (the expense) I’d be more and more careful..!! If you apply TS-13 lightly building up the coverage, the orange peel will perhaps be more, and more polishing required – risk of burning through to the CF. If you apply it too heavy to avoid orange peel after a few mists, it “might” burn into the decals. OK it might not, but who’s to say. But it will dry faster. X22 acrylic is safer. If you apply it too wet in the early stages it possibly won’t ruin all that hard work, problem is – three weeks of waiting for it to go hard, but you might avoid orange peel, meaning less polish work, reducing the possibility of polishing into a decal. I’m siding with Klutz here, and TBH VRIC is right.. If you go with TS-13 please be careful. Be a shame to ruin all that work. It's your model, you do what you think is right. You seem to know what you are doing, as putting CF on like that is not easy..

Thanks everybody, your comments keep me motivated for this project !!!
 I began putting Studio 27 CF decal on the monocoque too. Here's the step where I am. I put CF decals in the red area :  In order to don't waste time and CF sheets, do I have to put it also in other parts of the monocoque ? If you check the following picture, I know that behind the red line at the back, in the engine bay, it's gonna be painted. My question is about the front of the red line in front of the car. Do I have to also put CFs decal there ?  Thanks in advance guys for your help and tips !!!! P.S : If you have nice pictures of all the CF parts in the real car, you cand send it to me by e-mail or give me the links by PM !!
