Is there some way you could modify the attachment of the brake disc to the suspension? That giant phillips head screw looks awful. The rest of your work looks very good.

Yes, it looks odd at least. The screw will be visible even with the wheel on the hub.

I have never seen a screw in that position for other kits before. What is it use for?

It will be better if the screw head can be made flush with the brake disc. The cross can than be filled with putty an painted to match the surrounding color.

Hi,

I like the red panels. They look very good!

I am not sure the pipes in your photos have reflections or seam lines. If those are seam lines, they should be removed by either sanding/filing or scrape by a knife. It will make the model looks a lot better.
