For mine, I just used a donor red RS1600i that I had and jsut transfered all the parts over.

The RS1600i I used was damaged a little so was cheaper than normal but the mk3 cabrio's are Ł15 in modelzone shops and online. The decals are from modelmotorvations.

Nope, you can unscrew them. Just take the tyre off and then you can split them apart. Then there is a screw.

I just swaped the bases over.
