Custom build of a Kenworth C509 as autralian roadtrain

[gismow]

The next step was to correct the front of the cabine. The haule didn't fit to it anymore. So I removed the splashback (???) to insert a new one.



In addition I wanted to seperate the front windows. So I added a thin layer of styrene and glued the middle stay from the back.





The result:





During the work I saw that a glueline began to break so I had to glue a stabeling plate behind it.





While the stabeling plate was drying I had a look at the doors. I had the idea to set the glass by using window seals.

So I cutted and sanded a form from a CD cover and mounted it into the door...





I also added a new splashback.



The seal in the dor looked nice, so I tested it in the front.





But I also tried an alternative. A window glass with a small black frame glued on it. The window was sanded exactly in the form of the frame so that I could set it into the hole.







What's your opinion ? Which solution shall I use ?
