Very Nice Detail! I really appreciate how the wheels have a 1:1 scale look and the depth is portrayed very well. It makes the model. How did you do this? I find this the biggest differentiator in how rally car models look with the white wheels.

Is this a curbside kit? I see that you have some plumbing listed in your notes, perhaps it is on the chassis for the diff coolers and such. I remember when these cars came to the US for the WRC Olympus rally. Awesome beasts in 2wd format. Love the look of your model. :)
