Porsche 911 GT2 'Playstation' LM '98 - WIP

This work is more of a restoration than a 'WIP'.
This is a kit that I stopped working on about 20 years ago, right before it was finished, when my daughter was born.
After that, I moved and put it in my car trunk, and it kept rolling around in the trunk. 

So I finished the work while repairing the many damaged parts. 

At that time, I tried clear coating on the windshield, but I accidentally applied matte clear.
However, I couldn't remove it with thinner because of the banner decal, so I applied glossy clear on top of it, but only the surface was smooth and the inside was like glass that wasn't transparent.
So I removed it all and printed the banner on top on decal paper, but the dpi of the printer I had at the time was low, so it wasn't clear.
This photo is the condition at that time. 

There were a lot of scratches and fine dust accumulated, so I rubbed it a little with a compound and the shine came back.
It didn't make them look like new, but it felt like I had cleaned my glasses after they had been foggy for months. 🙂 

So I gathered up the exterior parts and rubbed them all down with a compound.
I was surprised that there was no shrinkage at all, considering that it was a lacquer coating that was painted 20 years ago. 

I used the wheels from this kit when I built my Expotech car before, so I had to repaint them. This time I used masking-sol to mask them.
