Help with Lamborghini Aventador 1:10 MOC [WIP]

[damian_kane_iv]

Hello Eurobricks Technic,

This is my first forum post and I'm currently attempting a 1:10 supercar technic MOC. Its largely based off of the parts from the 24 Hours Race Car 42039 and the Formula Off-Roader 42037. So far, I've completed the main chassis, drivetrain, and a partial gearbox. I'm opting for a sequential 4-speed since I lack the parts for a more complicated transmission.

At the moment I have finished most of the chassis and underside and I am just starting to do bodywork for the car. At the moment I have limited parts due to the rest of my collection being in another state. Features include: 

1 All-wheel drive

2 Partial sequential 4-speed Gearbox (inspired by Attika's design; gears are the same but altered housing)... still missing some parts 

3 Independent suspension rear and front wheels (largely based off 24 Hour Race Car set)  

4 HOG steering (planned)

Planned features: 

1 Scissor doors

2 Rear aero (deciding whether to invest in designing an active aero mechanism or static wing)

I'm drawing a lot of inspiration from Stefan Birkefeld's Aventador design in terms of body work and scale. Let me know what you think and any suggestions or changes I should make.

I think you should probably take a break from your work and eat some waffles

Or if that's not helpful, then just check out other cars for ideas.

Maybe your question might be a better fit on Bricks Stack Exchange, just read their guidelines first. I really doubt there's going to be much help here.

It sounds like you have a fun project on your hands.   What was it you needed help with?

I'm looking for suggestions on approaches to bodywork and building up the chassis to make the build more stiff overall. Looking at my build so far, there's a chance that I'll need to overhaul the gearbox to make room for the engine
