Arrived today. Is the figure car that the speedway puts out. As i learn and experiment ( with alot of help from you guys) with the goal of one day doing a winner from a kit. Learning on these works.
Second worse paint job from GL i have seen, only being the 17 Fernando car being the worst. Engine cover louvers were painted by Helen Keller. No matter, getting cf'ed over. Looking at victory lane photos, you will catch GL got the front wing stripes reversed and apparently no pole sticker was ran along with no tech decals. Proboards Indycals has validated the tech decal thing. Car will get front wing extensions and a small rear wicker. Tub will get some help and Indycals will be getting an order. Figure to be signed @ St Pete in March. One place i am a bit stranded. Rear light. Mimicking it. Feel free to throw out an idea. I'm a bit unsure where to go. 3d printed would be great or another direction idea is welcome. Thanks for looking.

Update. Added some Dzus fasteners and corrected the front wing GL miscue. Learned a lesson. Did the stripes with tbe DXC emblem. The DXC emblem wanted to fold when removed from water. Next time i wont try as big a decal. Added an antenna and thought i had a fix for the front wing extensions. I tried an egg carton and cut out what was needed. But it dosnt want to bend without kinking. ( You guys taught me to think outside the box). Rear wicker and engine cowling vents will get cf'ed next. Thanks for looking and as always, comments welcome.

Yeah, i dont usually stray from race day photos, but i thought the tech decal looked cool. I may take it off. All decals by Indycals. Again, any and all comments welcome.
