Way to obvious. Yup.

Well, I didn't have time to update this thread but I finished the car for now. This car was done for the XMF open class comp.
I had to meet the deadline so I worked all night to finish it.

Rear diffuser was made form the original spoiler:

I had to cut down the spoiler as it was too big:



Glued on:






Looks half decent IMO.

And this is something I had to literally stay up the whole night for. The team XI decal. I was originally going to get a full body vinyl made for the car. But for that I would have to travel 400KM. Lol. No time for that. So I improvised.

I purchased a sticker sheet, cut it up to A4 size. And printed a mirror image for TEAM XI using Microsoft Word Art.

I will upload pics of that tomorrow as I didn't have time to upload them today.

The logo was painted on the left side skirt. I had to obviously remove the paint for that:


I worked through the night finishing this car. And got to take pics at sunrise.

The finished product with pics better than I ever hoped for













The side skirt was painted black, and the logo was done in Fluorescent Green. Which means transparent green. So it's going to get LED's behind it in the near future

Mod list:

CPV 26mm Alloy rims
CPV blue universal swingshafts for TT-01
CPV blue Alloy center shaft for TT-01
Topcad Alloy spoiler
Custom body paint
Custom hood
Custom rear diffuser
Custom TEAM XI logo
Tamiya TLU-01 Light Kit
Green Long hoodpins(No Brand)

As far as I recall that's all.
This Project is finished for now.

All comments suggestions were very much appreciated.

Later, T.I.M
