Fujimi's model of the Porsche 917K is a classic, but fortunately being able to add details and improve its finish is becoming easier thanks to the launch of sets such as the one designed by ScaleLab 24. Two complete photo-etched plates, where we find innovative details such as a template to mark the tires with the Avon brand, currently used to fit this beast, or the relief of the control units inside the passenger compartment. Besides, fabric material for the harnesses, masks to paint the frame of the side windows, and resin parts, such as the brake fluid bottles that are visible when the central cover of the front hood is opened. How good it is to improve!
