[quote][i]Originally posted by JustMe[/i] Sorry that this update has taken so long! But it's been crazy at work, and being sick and all doesn't help a lot to speed things up. But, we're back. In these days I've sanded and shaped the left rear panel, it's not yet 100% finished but it's beginning to look very good. I've also started on the front end. In order to good the right clearance and splitter thickness, I had to glue on the sides and sideskirts. Placing the body on a perfectly flat table and using a 0,8 mm thick plastic sheet as reference for the splitter, I took a strip of plastic and sort of pulled it around the front, so that the charastaristic skirt is in the perfect place. When that was on I filled the gap in the middle of the front of the street 430 with glassbubbles. this was the easy part :bounc: Next up will be, yes, those front louvres. I've not yet started this but this is how I plan to do it: I will cut, out of 0,8mm sheet messing, a narrow strip, and I will bend this carefully to get the right curve in them. Then, using a very thick dubblesided tape, tape 3 of them on each other, were the tape serves as the spacing between the louvres. Then I will glue this as a package in the body, and when and if it's strong anough, I will peel out the tape, I hope!:D Check later if my plan will work :laugh: [/quote]
