Hi bigmalo, welcome to the forum, just a quick tip don't put any of your personal details on your posts. Everyone one seems fine and trustworthy on the site but you can't be to careful. If you want to send info to someone use a pm ( private message).

Hi Warthog, Any progress with the build? Looking forward to seeing more on this! Just a quick question, on the nose, in-between the two black decals running up the nose towards the cockpit, is the red a decal, or painted? And if not does the colour match the MP4 red truly? Just ordered some MP4 red as it's back in stock! Cheers mate! Building the McLaren MP4-23

Cheers mate! The red in between is all decal although there is another make that do it without and you have to apply the red before hand... Not much to post this time as been busy and away on Holiday in Spain but just a work in progress for the engine... Warthog attached the following image(s):

Ah cheers for that Warthog, I bought the nose decals from JJ on ebay, so think I have the same as you as it has the red on there! What are you planning on doing with the engine block? Looks good! Building the McLaren MP4-23
