And if you have solar film, you can put some on the mirors.
If you don't, i could send you some next time. ;)

Yes, you're right, the car has three mistakes, one is the "C4" on red, I was afraid that if I tried to erase the red one with ethanol, I'll damage the rear spoiler, the other is the mirror efect on the windows and the last one is the car mirror, in Catalunya Rally it wasn't in the middle from the door

Well, so with your help I'll solve two mistakes :D

How did you manage to erase the red "C4"?

To erase things on plastic or mirror, i use a special product that my retailer gave me. It is a cream to polish the plexiglass. i don't remember the name, i will look and tell you, but i don't know if you will find it in spain or on internet ?
Do you have solar film for the windows ?
About the left mirror, it is hard to change its position, because a hole will stay if you change it. Ixo corrected the mistake on the 2008 C4 (redbull).
There is another difference on your car, the wheels. I personnaly used norev bases to realise 2007 tarmac version (excepted Irland version, ixo wheels are ok).

Sorry Ferran, i found another mistake. :(
You did not replace the 2 decals "citroën financement" by the 2 "citroën credit" used in Spain. (in deuschland, it is citroën bank) ;)

Now I'm getting small, small, small... :p

I'll wait to know which polish you use in the way to change the red C4 from the rear spoiler, the other option is to paint it with black flat paint. And about that film you say to make mirror effect, I don't know which is.

I don't erase! If is a matt black plastic piece, I cover carefully with Vallejo's Matt Black applied with brush, let dry, and apply the rigth decal... If its satin or gloss black I paint over with Humbrol satin black, let dry, and apply the decal...

I think is fast and safe. But remember that every teacher has is own guidebook.

FYI: Enjoy building a metal kit, the serious way!
