Now wait a minute. Resin doors?

Sorry, couldn't resist. And this thing looks real nice, sigh. Just when I am in discussion of getting some items from my "must have" list, this comes up. I'd say it's going to sell like hot cakes. Must resist. Other long sought after items have to be gotten first.
Cheers,
Roman

WOW...this will be spectacular. But not to sure about resin doors. Looks like a primed model.
Great times for a Porsche fan but very expensive ones !!! ...guess I need to sell my 1/1 to afford all these amazing 1/12s :)

I like its front, i like its rear, but i don't like its side look. I've always found it difficult to like 935 flat nose derivatives so i'm biased...

Detolf is the best option from Ikea in my opinion. No wood frame that minimizes the view and enough height. I have seen some information from people that could make dust protection. Somebody sell 3D printed parts to support additional shelves or in a more rude way you can use industrial devices.

Why not to open a Detolf thread to share ideas?
An extra shelf/hardware or two for this display case would make it ideal for model display. Problem is that IKEA doesn’t sell extra parts for this unit. It’s not that they don’t exist. Perhaps an appeal to Ikea would provide some traction?
