Prepare your paint project

The product is stripped and ready for your paint and finishing choices. Decide on the look you want and prepare the casting using materials appropriate for your project. The listing does not specify a required paint brand or supply list, so follow the instructions on the materials you choose.

Before final assembly, test-fit the parts. The kit is designed to click together, and model glue or rubber cement may be used for extra hold. Checking the fit before painting helps you understand where the pieces meet and plan the finish around those assembly points.

Factory wheel sizing

The factory reference is 10 mm front and 12 mm rear. Keep the front-to-rear difference in mind when planning the finished appearance. If you are considering replacement wheels, confirm the fit for this specific Lotus Sport Elise casting before ordering.
