Another fantastic kit that replicates a magic police car.  "Magic" because it doesn't require any sort of antennae for its radio equipment!   Nor does it require inner shafts and handles to operate its A-pillar mounted spotlights! 

Semi-"magic" because it mates a 2020's car with a 1980's-1990's prisoner divider/cage. 

Ahh, well. There's always another year . . .

What makes you think it’s an older style divider? You can’t really see much of it in these pictures.

All the Police equipment included in the kit were modeled after equipment shown on either the official 2021 Dodge Pursuit Demo, in service current generation Charger Patrol Cars or shown in equipment catalogs that were current at the time of development. 

Spotlight handles would have also required A pillar trim to attach them to, things like mast antennas and microphone cords are too fragile to mold in scale and are easy to make with common detailing materials.  There were also limitations on how many total parts I could have, considering there a still an unannounced third version coming.

Who makes a 3D printed wide body kit for the Charger kit and do you have a link?

Iceman Collections did one a while back, but it's no longer available.

  He does have a custom widebody parts kit now, but it's not the factory style. https://icemancollections.com/products/wb-wide-body-kit-for-2021-dodge-charger-1-25

And for those that print their own, there are a few different wide body Hellcat files on Cults3D.. https://cults3d.com/en/search?q=charger+widebody

@SteveG, Any chance you can pre paint the windshield/rear window in this issue like you did with the windshield in Bronco? 

I happen to be looking into doing exactly that, I can't promise yet but I'm optimistic about my chances of getting it done.

Regardless of your political leanings, it’s interesting that they included the “thin blue line” flag.

Which is funny since California is the last state that would allow that flag to be on a patrol car. It says more about Round 2's politics, which I appreciate.

Yes, both the windshield and back glass are now pre-painted. 

Note the decals are just decals, not meant to be a political statement or endorsement by Round2 or its staff one way or another.   I like to believe this is still a hobby that can bring people with very different interests and viewpoints together.  However, I would assume if you're interested in building a Police Car replica model, you probably support the Police and are not offended by any graphics that might be displayed on a Police Car.
