BEAUTIFUL LEGO F40 (be careful buying used though! please read below)
First, I want to be CLEAR. This is NOT a "dig" at, nor is it the seller's fault. LEGO is known to have "issues" with some pieces cracking and/or breaking over time. This is especially true for certain pieces and/or colors. I just want to make it more known, if you are buying used pieces and kits, this can happen.
From what I've heard when speaking with the LEGO company, it can happen if the model is subjected to heat/cold, some cleaning chemicals and U/V deterioration of the plastics ...also, some were poorly designed, imho, but LEGO won't admit that! They do, however, kind of inadvertently admit it, because many of these "problem pieces" have been redesigned/updated. haha
Now, on to the F40! I LOVE it!!! ...but boy do I wish I bought it new at the LEGO store, when it was literally in my hands! lol
Broken/missing pieces aside, I was able to build the car with the help of a few pieces from my collection,and also by "strategically" placing the remaining parts I didn't have, to where they're not too noticeable or structurally important. I do intend to replace them though, next time I get on bricklink to make an order. ;D
After completely disassembling the model, carefully cleaning the parts (luke warm water and MILD soap, ladies and gents!), and removing (very carefully with a fresh x-acto blade) and repositioning a few of the stickers that had been put on "crooked/off center", I was pleasantly treated to a BEAUTIFUL LEGO F40 for my shelf! Finally!!!
Shown in the pics are a few examples of the broken parts I received, along with the finished build next to a minifig and a 1:18 scale F40 for size comparison.
Here is a list of parts which were cracked/broken, in case anyone wants to know:
7x 306921 (1x2 red tile)
3x 306926 (1x2 black tile)
6x 4211052 (1x2 dark bluish grey tile)
1x 4556158 (Modified 1x2 plate black/ O-clip variant)
4x 4565323 (Modified 2x2 plate w/ center stud black)
5x 4650260 (1x1 Round tile light-bluish gray)
Also, the pieces to build the bonnet prop-rod were missing... Probably easy to miss as it does not physically attach to the model. Also, missing 2 or 3 random parts... Another thing I can't and do not blame the seller for, as they acquired the model used, and probably didn't know or notice.

Looks great, but fitment is atrocious
Extremely poor design. It fits so sloppy on my car it's literally unusable. Seems to fit somewhat "snug" on a stock plastic dr10 motor guard (that nobody uses because they flex severely).. Tried it on both a Hot Racing Aluminum motor guard, as well as an Exotek one, and it just "rattles around" on both of them.
It really needs to be a 2-piece design that "sandwiches" the motor guard, in order to hold tight to it... I'm not sure what HR was thinking on this one... It looks very pretty, but that's no good if ya can't use it!
