 After opening the box, I examined the parts, and I decided to remove the front
cowl and add details. The first thing was to cut the lower part of the air dam.
I used the sharp side of a design knife, and carved a sharp line first. This
will prevent the knife from missing the line when using the dull side to make the line
deeper. |
 The second procedure was to engrave a sharp line, and make it deeper and
deeper. |
 The lower part was cut as shown. I
used a sand paper to flatten and clean the separated sections. |
 The front area is well done for a hidden
part. Because most of the air ducts are provided, it is not so difficult to add
details. |
 The radiator inlet has a minor problem.
It's too deep, making the inner ducts on the chassis too short. To correct
this, I used a saw, and cut the back part by 2mm or so. The removed piece will be
attached to the front of the inner ducts. |
