Quick release PIP Pin, the manufacturer's part number DCL-PAR189, is a scale reproduction of a quick-release pin in 1:24 scale. It is not a model and not a kit — it is a single small component that a modeler adds to a car model wherever the real subject has a quick-release joint. The 1:24 scale matches the most common size of car kits, so the part can be used across manufacturers; which kit it is intended for, the manufacturer does not state.
A quick-release pin with a ball lock is a common racing fastener. It is pulled out by its handle in a single movement, while the balls in the shank hold it against falling out on its own. In motorsport it secures hoods, tether cables, caps and quickly removable parts of the body — everywhere a mechanic has to reach a joint within seconds and where a bolt would hold things up. On a model it is a detail that gives a racing machine away at once: an ordinary road car has no such joint.
The part is so small that it can only be worked with tweezers and over a mat with raised edges. Mark the position in advance from a photograph of the car you are building; fitting it in the wrong place shows more than a missing part would. Glue with cyanoacrylate glue applied with a wire. Lay the paint on in a thin coat, otherwise the lock will fill in; a metallic shade on the handle stands out over a flat dark base.
This is an accessory for a model, not a kit. The base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
