935k3 Posted June 18, 2018 Posted June 18, 2018 Finished. Belkits 2011 Ford Fiesta WRC. There is allot of problems with kit and I probably will not buy anymore of their kits. Decals are too thick and do not conform well which causes creases that once cut will not lay down. There is no decal guide, some parts do not look like they do in the instruction. One bad mistake is the shocks have round peg that is to put into a D shape hole in the uprights. The tires melt plastic and paint. My WIP is here http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/132762-belkits-ford-fiesta-wrc

There is allot of problems with kit and I probably will not buy anymore of their kits. Nice job on a tough kit. It should be noted this was one of their first kits ever back in 2012. Their newer kits are substantially better - like night and day different from the old kits. Also they use Cartograf decals now like everyone else.
Belugawrx Posted June 19, 2018 Posted June 19, 2018 Looks like you wrestled those decals into submission nicely... Cheers
Ich_Will Posted June 19, 2018 Posted June 19, 2018 The tires melt the plastic?! The end product looks great and I checked out the build thread. Nice work. I've always wanted to do a WRC something.
aurfalien Posted June 20, 2018 Posted June 20, 2018 Hi, This looks really really nice and makes me want to build a WRC kit.
Funkychiken Posted June 21, 2018 Posted June 21, 2018 Really wanted this kit too, looks great, but may have been painful to get there... Excellent finish!
Silver Foxx Posted June 22, 2018 Posted June 22, 2018 Real nice looking build , and great work on the decals .
hvymtl Posted July 1, 2018 Posted July 1, 2018 You did a wonderful job on this ! from what I have seen this kit I thought it might be worth adding to the list of to do kits but I think I will wait on this one. again very nice Michael
