Have looked at these, how is the result of the 3D printing?Will there be a lot of sanding and priming?

A little bit of fettling will be needed, but nothing horrendous. The bumper probably needs the most tidying up, but nothing horrendous.

I’m planning a Lancia Rally tribute so I’m picking up the bits I’m not going to wait for on eBay.

It certainly looks like one of Tamiya’s more fragile bumper designs.
Not a big concern at the minute, but I’m wondering if I should paint it so it’s less bright white ??

Not a bad idea. I have had great luck with TS-7 (Tamiya Racing White) which is just a shade or two off white.... It was perfect for my Herbie the Love Bug body..

Cheers Jim, I’ve got a couple of cans of TS26 which is pure white. And you’re right it needs to be slightly off white.
