    Is there a thread I can find more detailed info and pics on the yellow and the blue FXX?
    I'm working on two custom 1:18 die-cast, and need close up pics of the outside front windshield to get a better idea of what decals I need to make for the 22 car (yellow).

    I noticed the pics from Silverstone (of the #22 yellow) car have yellow trim on the wheels? Is that the case or was that just a reflection?

    I could also use any other close up shots of the 2 cars. Any from Silverstone would be great

    Yes, #22 does have yellow on the wheels.

    As for the decals, if you mean those small white stickers, they are just Ferrari/FXX decals. The same shape as the ones on the side of the car with numbers, but they are without the number and larger Ferrari badge (not shield) with 'FXX' and whatever is written underneath it. There are 3 on driver's side and 4 on the other. I'll see if I can find a close-up of it.

    The stickers show the FXX events the car has taken part in.

    Great, thank you very much, but not sure I understand the meaning of the numbers on the right of the windshield, but thanks for the info on the smaller door like decals.

    I have this set of decals and want to put them on the correct way for a 1:18 custom.

    Thank you so much!

    That will help a lot!

    I been sitting here the last 30 min putting the easy to see stuff on and getting ready to print out more here later on tonight, I was gonna go with red rims but I like the yellow on it much better.

    I still have to detail the interior, engine bay, wheels, brakes, rear grill parts, and hope I don't make it look stupid.

    I'm trying to make it look as original as I can though. :)

    I'm sure that I can provide you with all of the information for the "blue FXX".....

    The little white decals at the top of the windshield denote the FXX events which that car has taken part in, so the number of decals may be different for each FXX.

    For example, the blue car will probably carry decals for "Europe Round 1 2006 - Spa", "Europe Round 2 2006 - Nurburgring", "World Round 2006 - Monza", and "Europe Round 1 2007 - Silverstone".

    The "blue car" probably also carries a windscreen decal from the "Parade des Pilotes - Le Mans 2006" and a scrutineering sticker on the dash from the Goodwood Festival of Speed 2006....................

    Do you (or anyone else) have any closeup shots of these great looking wheels on #22?

    Thanks. :)

    The pictures and information all of you have provided (for the 2 cars) is wonderful, thank you very much.

    I will finish up the #22 first and then move on to the Blue FXX in a few weeks. I have a feeling the engine bay and interior are going to take me some time to finish.

    Btw, are the interiors of each FXX the same or at least between the yellow and blue cars?

    Nice, I have some fake carbon fiber sheets coming in the mail and will pick up that logo and see if I can copy those autographs and make decals.

    Thanks!

    I have seen some in car video but the camera is all over the place, is there any pics of the inside of either the yellow or blue FXX?
    If they are the exact same I would be happy with any interior pic.

    Oh yeah are any of the switches on the dash marked?
    I need to make more decals if so.
