That’s really bad luck, @anthonyricco, maybe you can hide the damage by weathering the car as how it looked at the of the race.

This is a horrible moment, Anthony @anthonyricco
Hopefully you can still make it look acceptable, the idea of George might be a good one.

Damn Anthony @anthonyricco That is horrible, and any idea why it did it? Maybe weathering is the way to go. The only other solution I can think of for you is a replacement set from Indycals. Am I correct in saying that you are South African? I will be placing an order with them today which my brother will be bringing back from the states for me in the next couple of weeks. If you can get from Indycals and would like to order, let me know and I can include them with mine. You are welcome to send me a private mail if you wish.

So this model wants to give me trouble - I'll give it trouble back. Let's roll with the damaged goods, sanded the decals so they are part off, added some scratches and scrapes, fogged up one of the lights. Let's show this kit who is boss.

Keep going, @anthonyricco, it’ll soon learn who’s the boss.

Well Anthony, it was looking good a few weeks ago, I hope it turns out to your satisfaction in the end !

Thanks Everyone - haha definitely some frustration released and into a good place haha, and the driver... he was never heard from again.

Here are some updates, painted some thin white over everything to fade the colours down and make it look faded in the sun.

Then added dust and weathering all over - here are some close up teasers before the reveal.
