    I built the Fiat racer, I have the Alfa kit and it has sat for 4 years - my skill is not adequate to do it justice!

    Very nice, but you may want to make a new thread for your F40 with more details.
    Looks great though. :)

    Nice Stephane. You have a lot more patience that I.

    Did the customer send you pictures of his car, or did you do it all on your own?

    Thanks for all the nice comments. Yes, this is the way his car looks, so now he has a matching pair.

    The USA spec ones do not, I thought all the Euro spec ones do?

    Do you have a pic of the car? Or could you at least tell me what country it is from?

    I thought that I read somewhere that a country or two in Europe didn't require them, bit I'd like some proof.

    Thanks!

    The model is going to Australia, but I have to honor my client's privacy. I assure you his does not have rear fog lights. I have seen a few in the US that way, not sure which ones do or don't.

    US spec ones don't have them. So you say Australia huh, I'll have to look into if that was one of the countries that doesn't have the rear fog lamps.

    Thanks.

    Your model kit shows an "Euro" F40.

    The only "Euro" F40 without any fog lamps I've ever seen is one of the 1987 prototypes.

    I'm curious to see a pic of your australian F40...

    MY customer's F40 is not a right hand drive, it is left hand drive, so not sure what country he bought it from, but I assure you it has no fog lamps. I didn't know there was a fog lamp police on this board. ;)

    Sorry, I do not post photos of my customers' cars for privacy issues.
