Detail your Lotus Type 79 scale model with Tamiya 12635 etched parts

The Tamiya 12635 Photo Etched Parts Set is made for modellers who want to increase the authenticity of their Lotus Type 79 1978 kit. These fine metal components recreate functional surfaces and joinery found on the original race car.

High fidelity exterior components

Interior and finishing improvements

Metal seatbelt buckles and supplied seatbelt webbing allow you to finish the cockpit with convincing harness detail. These additions enhance both appearance and the modelling experience for careful builders.

While beginners can use the set, it assumes some skill with small parts. Practice basic photo-etch techniques and have fine tools on hand for best results.
Use a dedicated photo-etch folding tool or flat-nosed pliers with a soft jaw. Fold slowly along scored lines and check alignment before gluing.
Yes. Many builders adapt photo-etched parts to custom projects, but expect to make small adjustments for non-standard chassis or custom bodywork.
