Going slow over here, but feel a rush of itchy fingers to finish the Kit.
Under the X-Mas Tree was ANOTHER FW24 ((Italian Version), which I ripped open to paw through the upgrade parts.
And there were some nice surprises in there, bassically the same Kit as the German version with the following changes/additions.
1) Upgrade parts (PE, White Metal, Carbon Decal sheet)
2) A Sprue cast in clear
3) B sprue dropped for G sprue to make the different spoilers
4) Tire rims are now pre-chromed
The Carbon Fiber decal sheet came as a surprise as all the shapes are marked and numbered on the back. The PE parts partially can replace some of the Studio 27 Parts.
So I decided that I will combine the 2 Kits to make 1 for the build(don't think that I will make the deadline though), the clear parts as expected were cast in the hard clear plastic (surface very smooth and slightly brittle).
