Thanks to much mates, thanks for yours comment and appreciation. Love Love Love

Here the last steps done.

The engine room is completed. I coloured some wires, i added the wire to the coil and i finally added some decal (like suggested by Magpie). I simulated the use of Greddy fuel injectors like in some real vw tuned engine.

I covered with alu tape the chassis heat shield

Finally i black painted the exhaust system like supersprint or remus sport exhuast. I coated the manifold with bendage tape.

Now i'll wait the silencer to modify the tailpipe.

After received the second seat, i start to modify them.

I remoed the trim from the chassis. I sprayed it in matt black and i use a Recaro decal.

Now i must decided if to mantein the kvlar chassis and color some details in coral, or total respray the chassis seat in coral. to choose this, i think is better to wait the overral interior

Where did you get those seats? I have had a difficult time finding stuff like that in 1/8 scale.

Thanks to everybody for your impressiona and comments.

@ Metal Mech: The seat are in "Costruisci la Dellta HF Integrale WRC 1/8" is an italian collection made by Hachette (the same that produced this Golf Gti 1/8). These seats are the co-pilot seat of the Delta

Other the golf, i'm also collecting the delta too.

I think the delta will improve my tuning project with some future parts like sport steering wheel, 5 point safety belt and perhaps the project for rollcage.
My first idea was to swap the delta seat in the mustang too, but i think the interior mustang look are better with original.
