Posted by enemeink on Sunday, December 25, 2011 7:22 PM

So i've been trying to locate shots of the frame and engine compartment for this kit but i haven't been able to find anything good. I want to do some detailed work in the cockpit and engine compartment but I can't find anything. does anybody here now of a site that has pictures like this? any help would be appreciated. here is a link to the kit my loving wife gave me for Christmas!

Thanks, but unless I'm missing something these are just pictures of an RC car. I was hoping to find detailed pictures of the actual car so i can scratch build some details.

I do appreciate the help though.

Try the DTM website, in the 'Fan Corner':

You can select different years and events.  Most of the pictures are of the races and track bimbos, but there are some decent pictures of cars in the garages getting worked on.

who would have thought it was so hard to find pictures of a car.

So the decals for this kit are all over the place. For example there is a carbon fiber decal for the valve cover for the plate that covers the plugs and injectors. the decal is too short and would only cover 2/3rds of the part. but then there is a side skirt decal that is too long and has to be trimmed to match the curve of the wheel-well, or the decal will not sit flat. is this normal?

I'll post some pictures soon. I didn't feel like doing a build log for some reason. but i guess i can do some in progress shots.
