..one thing i noticed, the black aero parts at the front wing end plates (to streamline air around the innerside of the front wheels) are not attached correctly. L/R wise.. should be sweeping outwards behind tyres.
Maybe easy to fix .;)

A great model, where did you get it?

Could it be that the rear wing tilts slightly to one side?
