Beautyful color! Sadly, that you didn't paint the red plastic in the engine compartment and the undercarriage.
I like to see this model kit built.

In fact, I have prepared the kit to be finished in a polished plastic, with no painting in the body. During the work on the body, i found some failures in the plastic and, than, I decided to paint the body. Although, after painting the body with blue, I remember that I have the chassis in red, unpainted. Well, thats an aging effect, hehehe... The true is: This was a bad blue enveloping work in a red car. And that it!

The owner sprayed it over 😄
You wrote, that you wanted to polish the plastic. What do you take for it? I can't remember, to herd such technic.

Take a look at mine GT40 Photo album. It was polished, not painted. I use a Dremel with a 90 degrees adaptor that transform the tool in a polisher. Than, plugged in a dimmer to reduce the rotation under control. After that, using cotton dishes, we should apply polishing pastes. I have used #2, Meguiars 105 and 205, finished with a carnauba wax bay hand.
