Wing, mirrors and antennas Audi R8 New Version

Slot.it Wing, Mirrors and Antennas for the Audi R8 New Version — Original Parts in 1/32 Scale

When one of the most delicate parts of your body shell gets damaged on track, the only sensible response is to replace it with an original spare. This SICS12P set from Slot.it groups the wing, mirrors, and antennas specific to the Audi R8 in its New Version into a single blister, ensuring a perfect fit and finish in line with the brand's original mould.

Function and Performance

Body parts such as the wing, mirrors, and antennas are elements that, due to their exposed position, often become the first victims of track accidents. Having the exact replacement prevents the need to withdraw the car from the season or resort to compromise solutions that affect the visual appearance of the model.

• Rear Wing: Aerodynamically profiled part that faithfully reproduces the design of the Audi R8 New Version.
• Mirrors: Scale elements with the correct geometry for this version of the model.
• Antennas: Detail complement that completes the characteristic silhouette of the prototype.

Compatibility

This set is specifically designed to fit Slot.it body shells of the Audi R8 New Version. Before installing any part, ensure that your body shell corresponds exactly to this version of the model; Slot.it has marketed different iterations of the Audi R8 over the years, and the anchoring points may vary between versions.

Assembly and Preparation

The assembly of these parts does not require special tools. Nevertheless, it is advisable to keep in mind some points to ensure a clean result:

1. Thoroughly clean the anchoring points of the body shell before placing the new parts.
2. If you are going to glue the wing, use a minimal amount of adhesive to avoid visible stains on the finish.
3. Check the alignment of the mirrors before the adhesive sets completely.
4. The antennas, due to their fineness, should be handled with fine-tipped tweezers to avoid deformation.

Common Mistakes

The most common mistake when replacing body parts is assuming that all Slot.it parts kits are interchangeable between versions of the same car. Always verify the specific reference (SICS12P) against the version of your body shell before proceeding with assembly.
