crispy Posted November 12, 2010 Posted November 12, 2010 Nice work Zoli! Did you do anything different with the wheels and suspension? What SMS carbon fiber did you use? Did you fiber the lip and side skirts too? Great build and quick! Chris
miatamadman Posted November 12, 2010 Author Posted November 12, 2010 The wheel base needed a little adjustment to get the wheels centered in the wheel wells. I also drilled out the brake rotors and slid them over the wheel pins to get them closer to the back of the wheel face. For the Carbon Fiber, I used Scale Motorsports Twill Weave #1024. The side skirts, front splitter, roof, hood underside and center console were decaled with the CF sheet. The front splitter had to be done with 2 pieces. The roof panel and B-pillar are separate pieces as well. You'll need to use plenty o decal solvent for the roof panel and plenty of patients to get it right.
