I agree with dimka, use the Renault front and rear wings. As far as bodys, I run the STANDARD f104 pro body on my f10, and it fits fine as long as your running the mini lipos. I also run the Renault front and rear wings.
You can use the Tamiya Ferrari, and Mclaren bodys, but you'll have to use the front wing from those bodys as well. They are not a direct fit to the f10, but can be easily adapted.

With optional S and M are excellent too.
Don't forget about micro battery back to fit narrow F104 body.
For 2010/11 car look you should purchase Renault R29 front and rear wing set (parts #104202 and #104203). This is my Fx10 with this wings, but i use standart HPI body.

Those HPI's look SOO much better with the Renault wing! HPI should just do a running change and include these with the kits to help sales!

Bought one on ebay for special low price ... bad choice :-(
Not suitable for racing! Only for training or fun. Cogging on start sequence costs you 1 or 2 sec delay.

.. thats terrible.Also being from Australia, where can i get that wing set as HPI america dont seem to sell them and HPI europe is the only place i can find them. However they are way over priced.
Cheers guys.

I hope everyone who can get will get to Al's Hobbies this weekend for the Asphalt Assault. Be good to see lots of F1 cars there 
Going to be trying a softer spring this time... see if get get a little better rear. I was actually grip rolling last race! ...very unerving!
The Tamiya soft rears and Medium (kit) fronts worked much better with harder inserts I found. If I can rid the car of the grip rolling I think I'll have more confidence. Steering seams better with the servo layed down and studs shimmed to rid bump steer.
Hope to see all there this weekend.

i have a good family member that does...and im willing to help and will soon be getting some choice parts made for the car...the reason im having a few parts made for it is because the pain and agony of waiting a month for parts...their are really only two things that break on the car and its rare if they do....so having some nice aluminum spares will help...
