                        Enzo_man here. I'm getting ready to do another Enzo Ferrari model. Yep the Tamiya one and its like my fourth Tongue [:P] This one I'm super detailing, oil lines and whatever. But I've never used CF decals. Which are the BEST brand to use for the most realistice finish? And what's the best solvent for it? I've seen the Scale Motorsports decals, but they just don't seem quite right (anyway, I was told they were SMS). Please lemme know.

                        Museuam Collection, Studio 27 and a few others make a few sets in different pattern size.

                        My first concern would be pattern size and the pattern of the weave itself.

                        this guy seems to have done lots of research: http://italianhorses.net/TamEnzo/enzo.htm

                        he claims that from the photos that he took of the actual car, there are both 'twill' and 'plain' CF patterns required, and suggests the SMS products.
