MeffMan :) Hi Meffman,
I've used so many sources to get some of these 'goodies'. Here are some resources I used:
http://www.hiroboy.com/
https://www.hlj.com/
http://www.tedsmodelingmarketplace.com/
http://www.shop.autographmodel.com/start-page
http://www.rbmotion.com/
In addition, I've bought a few things from eBay. Also, see my post #56 in this build thread for additional links for the hardware.
As far as the Senna figure, I bought that from Yahoo Japan auctions as well as the display case (since the figure was only available for the Japan market). I also bought the DeAgostini body stand (I posted the link in post #22).
The helmet is easy to obtain, they are made by Minichamps and have been around for years. You can get them from eBay, etc.
Hope this helps,
Jim

Heat staining the exhaust. I'm taking my artistic liberties here again as the real exhaust became more of a full bronze color over time.

I flocked the steering wheel to simulate the suede and added the Personal, radio and boost decals. I also made a communication cable (is that what you call it?) that is attached to the wheel.

I did most of the body decals. I used a combination of MC and MSM decals.

Thanks Dan!
I'm on the very last step of completion. However, I'm still adding a few more details before assembling everything together. I made additional cable connections to the electrical boxes. I also made a coolant line from the radiator (still trying to figure out the best way to run it along the monocoque w/o using the adhesive strips).
