Here's my latest 2014 Indy 500 entry, the #18 of Carlos Huertas. Modifications include filling the unused fuel filler on the right side of the chassis, removing the original rear wing endplates, and adding the excellent speedway rear bumpers. I had to color-match the decals for the cockpit surround and the rear bumpers. Decals for the front wing endplates were not included on the decal sheet, so I cut these from a spare decal sheet. This is often the case, so long ago I made a template of the correct shape, making the process fairly simple. Seatbelts are again decals from a spare NASCAR sheet. Decals for the fuel filler and exausts were punched out of black and silver decal paper using various sizes of tubing. Since I have to do one for every model, I've also fashioned a punch to make the black decal simulating the air intake over the driver's head. Sure beats detail painting that tiny area, and it comes out perfect every time.
