    That has come up really good, great job. :thumbs:

    What did you use for the pressed grill sections, are they plastic or brass sections ??

    Cheers, Gary.

    The grills are cut from 10thou plasticard that was put through a cameo cutter to score the vents in to it then glued straight on to the body
