Edit: I guess you were talking about this Brawn GP. The F104 body will be the closest to this. For the F103, the M body is the closest.

Tamiya made a Lola body back in the day, but they are hard to come by and for the 103L chassis which was a long wheelbase chassis.
DDrive sports has an Indy conversion kit and body to go with it

Tamiya F103 RM F1 Body
Hi everybody,
I have recently finally realised a childhood dream and purchased myself my first F1 R/c - a Tamiya F103 RM. I'm stoked, I can't stop playing with it, even though I dont really know what I'm doing with it!
I desperately want to customise a body and get some cool decals on it (particularly either the 2008 BMW Sauber or STR), but I really dont know where to start. Is someone able to give me a run down on the body types available, and what people turn them into? And a reliable source of decals? I visit D-Drive Sports everyday waiting for more STR or RBR decals (or the full BMW decals); but they seem to have sold out forever.
Any tips towards a beginners guide would be helpful too; because once I get the thing looking pretty; I'm going to want to get it fast =)
Thanks so much for your help everyone; I appreciate it so much!
So excited!!

Hey Calvin. That's an interesting mod for the F103. So all that is needed is the F104 front end and F104 servo mounts? And no drilling needed? Thanks.
