Hmm.... i kinda like the rat look with at least one or two new shiny components on it. We will see though, local club just started hill climb/bouncer events. After a few of those it will be do for a re-paint.

Still like how you make radiators. Going to have to use it when I get to that stage.

Hey Corey, how the heck are you ?


I don't but its simple....


I cut out a piece of styrene in the size and shape I want. Take a hand full of small black zip ties and nip the end off of them. Glue the zip ties to the patterned styrene. trim to fit the pattern. I then take rectangle stock styrene tube, slice it down the middle and wrap the edges of the new radiator to add some depth. You can do both sides if the radiator is visible from both sides. Add detail like a cap and hoses if you wish
