About product

Studio27 1:24 decal sheet, Ferrari 458 Italia No. 51 and 71, Le Mans 2015

A set of water-slide decals from the Japanese Studio27, a brand that modelers of racing cars know above all for its precise sheets. Let us explain it right at the start: there are no plastic parts in the box. This is not a kit, as you have to own a model of the Ferrari 458 Italia in 1:24 scale. The sheet serves to give an already built model the exact livery of a particular racing car. And that is exactly where its value lies: a kit usually offers one or at most two color variants, yet a real racing car went through a whole range of markings, race numbers and sponsors over a season. A collector wants that one particular car from one particular race, and that one is never in the box.

The real subject: AF Corse at Le Mans 2015

Race numbers 51 and 71 belong to the Italian stable AF Corse, which entered works Ferraris in the LM GTE Pro class, so this is the very top that Ferrari had in GT racing at all. In the 2015 running it was a pair of Ferrari 458 Italia GTE cars; the crews were made up, among others, of Gianmaria Bruni and Toni Vilander (No. 51) and Davide Rigon with James Calado (No. 71). Victory in the GTE Pro class escaped Ferrari then, but the year 2015 has a peculiar bittersweet flavor for fans: it was the last running of the 458 Italia at Le Mans, after which the model was replaced by a successor with a turbocharged engine. The great added value of the sheet is that it covers both cars at once, so you can build a pair and have the complete works team in the display case.

How to apply the decals so that they last

  • The base has to be glossy. Matte or satin clear coat holds air under the decal film and the result is a silver rim around the artwork, the so-called silvering. It is the most common and at the same time the most needless mistake of the whole process.
  • The body of the 458 swells markedly into curves and the sponsor markings are large. Without decal softener the film wrinkles on a curved area and does not settle, and with racing cars that is practically mandatory equipment.
  • Once it is dry comes a layer of clear coat: the decal drowns in it, its edge stops being palpable and after polishing the surface looks like the real coat of a racing car.

Compatibility and who the sheet is for

The decals are cut to the shape of a particular body, so the type of the model matters. According to the name of the product this set is intended for Studio27 kits. We recommend checking before buying that the sheet matches precisely the 458 Italia model you have at home. The set is ideal for collectors of endurance racing, admirers of works Ferraris and modelers who want a pair of cars of one stable in the display case.

The package contains decals only. The model of the car, paints, clear coat and softener are not included.

According to the name of the product they are intended for Studio27 kits in 1:24 scale. The decals are cut to the shape of a particular body, which is why we recommend checking the compatibility with your model before buying.

It is a silver rim which forms when air stays under the film of a decal, typically on matte clear coat. Always apply them over a glossy base, use softener and coat the finished work with clear coat.
