Guys I have done something soooooooo stupid I am almost in tears. An accident happened and the rear wing of my 2005 Bathurst winning car has fallen off! It was a stupid accident and I have it all in had and am wondering if there is anyone or anywhere if I can get it repaired? I am based in Perth.

This is my first 1:18 i ever bought of a v8 and a possession I do hold a lot of value to. This is a bit unsettling tonight as I have an exam tomorrow. Please no abuse or critical comments, just anyone that can help me get settled tonight a little bit.

Price no issue here, just good repairs. And I am no good at self repairs.

Depending on the severity (can't tell photo not up yet), get some good plastic modelling glue. Fixed a damaged wing on one model i had.

Also Loctite 401 is extremely fantastic, will hold absolutely anything but a tiny miny amount goes extremely long way and it sets super quickly. Also have used this on a damaged model.

Looks like either Footy or myself are able/willing to try to help you out.
It should not be such a problem, depending where it came off/broke.
If Footy or another person can not help you, then I am more than willing to do it.
The downside is that I am flying out early tomorow morning and will not be back till a fortnight or so.

Thanks mate for the offer. I just responded to Footy before I came here. Its real amazing this forum that you can send a message for help and there are people that can help you. I got a tape from Andrew (also offer from HRT1-2 to do it) for the 2002 Aust grand prix, which I still have last year. So to anyone that has helped anyone else on this forum, thank you!

That is the spirit that is alive here.
I am currently cooped up in the Q club due to a broken aircraft, not happy.

better to be broken there than in the air
