Perhaps it is asked before but it is early and about to go to work.
Who is doing a decalset of the Mercedes W01?
If so on what body is it based?
The F60 or the Mclaren?

Decal island did the W01 decals, the sheet also includes the virgin livery, you can get them through Ddrive sports in japan. I have them for sale too, but I'm not sure what would would be a better deal shipping wise for you, for me to ship from the states, or for them from japan
Pm me if you are interested

Whichever or you want, although the Ferrari is probably the closest to the shape of the Mercedes

A couple of pages back there are pictures of a McLaren all built up and ready to go. It is essentially a pro black edition without the carbon chassis. It is built with all stainless screws, and although it is shown with a McLaren body, I could do a Mercedes W01 for it . $450USD Will get it shipped to you or anyone else
PM if you are interested

The best body for the W01 stickers would be the Tech Racing F125 MG10 body, considering it is the early W01 complete with blade roll over hoop. The problem is finding anywhere that actually sells the body separately.

A Chevron F-110 Body could be good for the job, too. You could get the needed decals and body at ddrive.
