Great. Love quality and color and the small bumpers.
Are the rear lights upside down?

Probably, I don't know anything about the real car so followed the instructions blindly. That is an unfortunate and glaring error I will forever be ashamed of. Thank you for pointing it out. I will do better next time 🙁

Sorry for the rear lights. But you could easyly paint the lower part with red and that will fit perfectly to the California license plate. In the US the rear lights were also available in red only (at least through a car parts store) 😉 That is what I would do. The Beetle looks georgeous.

Thanks Rui.
Christian, I will live with the reminder of my mistake instead of risking making things worse by trying to either remove the lenses or paint the exterior of them. It's unfortunate, but inevitable being only a few years into the hobby I will suffer these pitfalls. That is the only way I can learn.

Having owned a bug for years I still have a soft spot for anything air-cooled.
Your model look absolutely great 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

You captured the essence of this iconic car to the full. And those "mistakes" - they will happen as long as you model. I just mounted the grill on my Unimog upside down. 😅

Thanks all, appreciate the kind words. I am overwhelmed with the response across all the platforms I have shared this like Facebook, YouTube, Reddit, and Instagram, and here of course. This is a great community.
