This version of the MP4/4 has the air scoops sticking through the top of the body shell. It was raced like this at a number of GP's.

Fabulous work Malc, love all of your little touches of colour with the yellow tape and purple clamps. Very eye-catching and draws attention to all of that lovely detail.

Very well done. Cool ThumpUp

The PE set has these rear wing end plates which get a thickened trailing edge with the addition of a thin strip.

Another nice update Malc, looking really good and top work as always, well done mate. Those rear wing end plates make all the difference don't they and realistically thin too, much better than the plastic kit parts!!

Watching with keen interest. Drool Cool ThumpUp

Thanks Kev. You're right the PE parts make a huge difference. I'm working on the front wing plates at the moment and it looks so much better.
Can't wait to see your super detailed build develop.
