I can only say Thank goodness this one is DONE. I don't think I've ever had a build fight me so far, all the way. It's almost as if this lump didn't WANT to get sorted. Anyway - now complete. Two different bonnets/hoods. One clear, one painted. I suppose considering the box of junk I started with it's not too bad. No more 'scrap' builds for a while though even though I have a good few in my pile. roymattblack attached the following image(s):

Well done Roy, you deserve TWO medals for that, one for your determination to finish it even if it was teetering on the edge of the bin, and another for the number of times that you've taken a box of random parts and successfully made something worthwhile out of it! I don't blame you for not wanting to touch another scrap kit for a while though.
Well done.
