That red one is a DIY one. It's the car that inspired me to make mine. All I need to complete mine is the R32 grill for the honeycomb bit. SHould get it this weekend or next.

I'm not keen on using filler to attach the honeycomb. I'm thinking of using little cable ties to hopefully hold it in place.
