Flexible Rubber Wing for LMS GT3 1/24

The wing that bends but does not break: Scaleauto's solution for the LMS GT3 1/24

Anyone who has raced with an LMS GT3 on track knows that rear wings are one of the most exposed parts to damage. A sudden impact, going off track, or even brushing against the side rail of a tight corner can leave the wing broken and the car out of action. Scaleauto addresses exactly this problem with this flexible rubber replacement under reference SC-7923I.

Function and performance

The technical rubber used to manufacture this wing allows the part to deform upon impact and immediately return to its original shape, without marks or permanent deformations. This translates into a very specific advantage during competition sessions: if the car suffers a hit at the rear, the wing gives way, protects the bodywork's anchor points, and returns to its position without the need to stop the race or change the part.

Unlike standard plastic wings, which accumulate micro-cracks with each impact until they eventually fracture, this component maintains its integrity indefinitely under normal track use conditions.

Compatibility

This wing is specifically designed for the LMS GT3 1/24 bodywork from Scaleauto. Its geometry faithfully respects the original dimensions of the model, allowing it to fit directly into the bodywork's anchor points without modifications or additional adjustments.

Installation and preparation

The installation is straightforward: simply remove the damaged original wing and place the new one in the same bodywork anchors. It does not require special tools or adhesives if the fixing points are in good condition. The matte black finish allows it to be used as is or painted to match the model's livery with reference paints such as Vallejo or Tamiya, which adhere properly to rubber surfaces with the appropriate preparation.

Common mistakes

• Using rigid glue to fix it: if a too-rigid adhesive is applied at the joints, the flexibility is nullified, and the main advantage of the part is lost. If reinforcement is needed, it is better to opt for flexible or polyurethane adhesives.
• Painting it without primer: on rubber, conventional acrylic paints can chip. A thin layer of flexible primer ensures the finish adheres properly.
• Assuming compatibility with other bodyworks: this wing is sized for the Scaleauto LMS GT3 1/24. It should not be assumed valid for other bodyworks without verifying the anchoring geometry.

Ideal for…

• Competitors racing in track championships with the LMS GT3 who need to reduce stops due to wing breakage.
• Hobbyists racing at home who want to protect the bodywork from everyday impacts.
• Preparers looking for a reliable and quick-install replacement solution.

Frequently asked questions

Can this wing be painted?

Yes, but it is recommended to first apply a specific primer for flexible or rubber surfaces. Otherwise, acrylic paints may crack with the deformation of the part. Brands like Vallejo or Tamiya offer primers and paints suitable for this use.

Is it mounted without glue?

In principle, yes, as it fits into the original anchor points of the LMS GT3 bodywork. If the anchors show wear, a small amount of flexible polyurethane adhesive can be used, avoiding rigid cyanoacrylates.

Does it always recover its shape after an impact?

Under normal track use conditions, yes. The technical rubber is designed to deform and return to its position. Extreme impacts or very high temperatures over prolonged periods may affect recovery, although under normal racing conditions this is usually not a relevant factor.

Is it suitable for other Scaleauto GT3 bodyworks?

This wing is specifically sized for the LMS GT3 1/24. Before using it on another model, it is advisable to verify that the anchor points and geometry are equivalent.

Is it the same colour as the original wing?

The finish is matte black, just like the standard wing. If the car's livery requires a different colour, it can be painted with the appropriate surface preparation.
