I like it so far ER. I decided to leave the interior out of my Acad Tiger because the part fit sucked and they didn't look right. Saving my Verlinden int for a better kit.
Motor comp looks ok and you won't see much bro, so don't go too cray there.

Boss exactly right about the Acad interior, plastic to thick and some parts are oversize needs a lot of sanding.
Thanks!

small update with the Tiger as you can see the interior is really cramp up, a lot sanding and fit to size is needed, and per Rob "The Boss" some parts are not needed... need to check and fit which is visible and not  Cheers!!! |
