I hear with each new pre-zimmed kit the zimmerit gets even better. Love the clean put together and the PE adds a little sugar on top. Tony lee

Nice work on the Elefant. One small suggestion before you get to painting, you may want to fix the rear Notek convoy light. Currently you have it installed upside down. The four little lights should be at the top and not the bottom as you have it now. HTH!
