Crasher..thanks for the link. That is a nice ride. I've got a different decal sheet. I think that mine is from 1998 or '99. I've got the number 10 and/or 11 car. I think I need some more pratice to make a build like that.Big Smile [:D]. I might try something like that on the replacement they sent me(except for the door,wow).. Zokissima, the kit I had is also a Tamiya 1/24 scale. It is a good kit. Lots of detail and paint mixes. Thank you both for the responses. Shane

Tominator....the pillars broke off right at the top and bottom of window. Luckily they were a pretty clean break. I super glued them in place and sanded smooth within an hour. In past projects I've noticed that any longer and the glue is hard to sand. If you look at the pics again you can see another break that I didnt get all the way repairedSad [:(]. It's right in front of the filler tubes. Look just to the right and you can make out the outline of the crack. Other than that just take your time. I spent about two hours cutting in the door outline to try to make it right. Good luck with yours and send pics when done. Shane
