Accidentally ruined the gauge and seat belt decals, so I had to hand-paint the gauges and will be adding aftermarket seat belts.

Thanks! I'm disappointed in the ripped decal on the cowl. Other than that I think it came out well.

Really nice looking build. What kind of paint did you use for the aluminum?

@Count Buggula I used Vallejo 77.701, Metal Color "Aluminum."
