I have heard of both DHL and FedEx doing that. One time a European manufacturer attempted to charge me VAT. Always good to keep with these things.

Are you taking reservations?

Please don't read this as political or even me endorsing one side or the other. This is simply the easiest way to keep track of country-specific tariffs. https://www.tradecomplianceresourcehub.com/2025/06/17/trump-2-0-tariff-tracker/ As for the de minimis, it is still set at $800 (this value does not include shipping and associated fees) except for China and Hong Kong. Those are set to $0. Tariffs are also the responsibility of the importer, meaning you if you purchased it directly.

This is/was the primary reason for the USPS saying no more small packets. They just simply weren't set up for the new change. It happened rather too quickly for them to do anything other than possibly say halt. Their initial public release even said "temporary" in relation to the stoppage, but leave it to the media...

I saw his post. I am looking forward to the pup and tripe decals and whatever he has planned with Roden.

You can order direct from them. They have reasonable shipping and it does arrive fairly quickly.

Each resin item would shrink about 3% in every direction so you end up with an object about 91.2% of its original size. Add some compound curves on that and if you try to add that 3% back you have to do it in lots of little slices. It would be extremely difficult to do and the end result probably wouldn't look quite right. 3D scan is an option but that takes some skill, equipment and experience with the resin you will using in the end.

I think you did. I can't remember if the tracking number was the same as they provided. It showed up on the informed delivery service and then took some time to get through customs. It was registered so once it hits some place that scans it, it should easily be found.

I forgot to mention that I received both the C2 and C7 transkits earlier in the week. I haven't had time to look other than a cursory glance at it. It does look quite good. As mentioned above about the decals, they came out before the conversion so I would suspect that maybe those versions are to come later. Also as far as tracking, the label was created quite some time before it shipped or at least got put in the system. I have never bought anything from Mexico before so I am not sure of how their postal system scans things in.

They indeed are selling and their parts are really nice. I purchased the Nesher set awhile back to do the Israeli version. It takes a little bit to get them, but they are worth the wait.

This was the email I received early yesterday morning. I believe Dave and I were one of the first if not the very first people to order. My guess is they finished the C2 and made the parts. Then started working on the C7. This would have allowed them to get the C2 up and available first. Then they can catch up on the C7 making it available afterwards. Regardless, it's not relevant as they both are being made. It just may be a few weeks before anyone else can order a C7 as they get caught up.

Not sure what I was thinking. I got it entirely backward. Thanks for the correction. The Meng is the late season. I should stick to closed-wheel racing, lol.

I did a little diffing. Those intakes were introduced for the British Grand Prix which he won. Most of his wins that year came with the later setup. The spoiler appears to be the very early season at that so it leads me to think it is supposed to be Monaco, which again would be an odd choice. He won the pole but in the rain. He crashed out of the race. So who knows???

Here is the late-season setup.
