I don't see the "Masami" decal sheet there

Maybe it is not yet available?

Kamtec are now listing 4 XLS shells & undertrays on ebay. Don't know why Keith persists in writing "Decal sets not available yet but a supplier is being sourced" because as far as I know, Kamtec have never got round to offering decals for any repros!

I always chuckle when I read that. It least we know where we can decals from now! Shame Keith hasn't done the wing, I REALLY need some wings

Anyone got any ideas whats the closest one to the XLS one? I was trying to get some Associated Wing Kits 2x4.5 but cant seem to find anyone with them in stock, Tower just deleted them off their listings.

I was about to buy one, but would like to know if Keith will sell the wing separately, I don't want to order a complete package just for the wing. An email is on the way about this.........

I bulk bought a load of Associated 2x4.5 wings from the U.S. last year. They aren't exactly the same dimensions as the original Schumacher wing, but certainly have the right "look" and I've not come across a better match yet. They can still be had on ebay if you look around.
Does anyone on here know Keith? If he could be convinced to repro the top belt cover, driver figure & wing that would be a great help.

I think if you speak to Jeroen (who sent him the cat xls) he did send him the whole lot, wing, driver, belt cover. But for some reason he has'nt repro'ed this, maybe Jeroen could clear up why

This is what i sent him.
I only got some repro bodys and undertrays back.
I dont think he made repros off the driver and gearcovers and beltcover.
And i do not sent it back and wait another 2 years !
I got some loose drivers and beltcovers , so when someone wants to repro them let me know.
