Platz/NuNu 1/24 BMW M6 GT3 PE

Platz/NuNu 1/24 BMW M6 GT3 PE

By Jeffrey Rumbold

This detail set includes three sheets of carbon fiber decals, one PE fret, a small bag containing two turned aluminum bits and a wire antenna, a length of red seat belt fabric and a two-page instruction sheet. The fret includes radiator faces, driver restraint webbing, wing supports and end plates, disc faces and even a superb pair of windshield wipers. A helpful blue-hued backing sticker will help keep parts from flying off during the removal process. The harness hardware plus the red fabric will combine to make a superb belt set. The carbon decals are nicely done and will pretty much cover all the bases - there are decals to cover the entire floor pan, including the diffuser strakes.

The instructions are acceptable, but I do admit to being a little confused about the process of bending/installing one of the emergency cutoff straps. Other than that, referencing the original kit's instructions along with the supplemental one from this set should get you there in the end.

This detail set will provide a number of realistic upgrades to the basic kit. I would like to thank Platz/NuNu Models for the review sample.
