Very impressive. These are so well done. Thanks for sharing.

Monsieur Joseph, You have done it again, sir! This is stunning and I agree with the method of not using a clear coat on these early models. It really gives it that "scale" look. It is also a more difficult option whilst risking burn through of the paint.

Thanks, there are a few flaws in it if you look closely but I tried to overcoat it with multiple layers of Future floor polish and then level it to hide the issues. If I had to do it again I think I would probably cut a couple of narrow "v"'s in the front of the decal to allow it to conform better to the curve of the roof line. Then use some solvaset and heat to get it to shrink at the outset. I think I waited too long to try this.

Thanks everyone

Great effort. You really shrunk this 1:1 example

You should be proud. Great example

Thanks everyone

Thanks, and Jim, the kit supplies precut masks and detailed instructions for masking the windows.

Thank You

Thanks everyone. This kit is a joy to build with the exception of the cf roof decal which wouldn't conform and seems to be a problem for everyone.

Out of box build in Scalefinishes Porsche "Geyser Gray Metallic" and UPOL clear coat. Wheels painted with Ford Candy Red (no clear coat). Loved the kit with the exception of the roof CF decal. I did my best with it.

Looks good to me. I have to build one of these in white with royal blue stripes

Love the perfection of this build!

I like it......alot!

Leo, I really appreciate your offer. I have thought of the copier method bc I have some Scale Motorsports Carbon Fiber decals (although not sure if the same pattern). I have never heard of the warm wash cloth method. I tried the heat gun method as I do with other CF decals and it didn't work with these. Right now I am still working on making these work before I totally give up. I have brushed multiple coats of Future to "bury" the wrinkles or stubborn areas, then like leveling paint when polishing, I am using 4000 grit sanding sheet, coating again, and repeating the process until the clear is level. It is slowly working I think.
