Next we take the shorter trim and align it with the 2 holes on the outside of the wing. Press the trim firmly into place and add 1 AP screw. That completes the front wing for this stage. spike attached the following image(s): Building - Suzuki GSX 1300R, Hummer, Ford Mustang, R2D2 Droid, Delorean.

Next we do the same as in issue 1, take the 4 light parts and clip them into the corresponding spaces in the frame. Push the assembled frame into the left side socket on the rear section. Make sure the plastic lip of the frame goes in first, secure the frame in place with 1 BP screw. spike attached the following image(s): Building - Suzuki GSX 1300R, Hummer, Ford Mustang, R2D2 Droid, Delorean.

Last thing to do for this issue clip the assembled numberplate, holder and base into the space between the two light panels. The plate should fit neatly into the rear section. Use 2 AP screws to secure the plate in place. spike attached the following image(s): Building - Suzuki GSX 1300R, Hummer, Ford Mustang, R2D2 Droid, Delorean.

Push the washer into the hole in the rim making sure he washer is flat. Then push the hub into the hole it should click firmly into place. That completes the wheel. spike attached the following image(s): Building - Suzuki GSX 1300R, Hummer, Ford Mustang, R2D2 Droid, Delorean.

Thanks Stevegbr, I have been getting my issues from the news agents after the problems i had with the 3D printer and the Nissan. I had problems with the small trim it wouldn't fit flush (still doesn't) i had to sand in the fitting. The metal parts are not that good.

I don't like the looks of the Mr Fusion looks just like it was on the test issue and it had loads of complaints about the screws showing on one side. Is that still the same?

The parts are not that bad but the metal parts could be better, the Nissan and Mustang parts are alot better. Building - Suzuki GSX 1300R, Hummer, Ford Mustang, R2D2 Droid, Delorean.
