Hi at all,
I have a 1/8 scale Eidai Grip (like Entex) Porsche Rs Turbo Martini kit to build.
Can you tell me if there is an aftermarket decal sheet for this kit ?
Thank you,
regards,
Giovanni La Rosa

There is also another option from a guy named Manfred. He sells a lot of aftermarket parts on german ebay made by i guess his company called M-Tec. These are actually stickers and not decals. The red sections have to be painted on the body. He can be reached at manfred-brueggemann@t-online.de

Another small update..

I began working on the chassis and the body. Currently test fitting the body to the chassis and it took me a while to figure it out. Whatever people said about this kit was true. The holes in the front didnt line up, the front was way too high and the gap between the wheel and the fender was a bit large. I ended up sanding down inner part of the front body section, shortened the shocks a bit and had to use heat to bend the connecting pins so I can secure the body to the chassis. This is how she sits as of right now.. Much better than what I started with for sure.
