1/ on the cab how did you do the bumper as I think the real truck had round lights, also where did you get lenses from?.

2/ where did you or how did you make the Centre caps for trailer?

3/where did you get lenses for bumper on reefer?

Thanks James

1/ The front bumper is the stock Tamiya King Hauler bumper. The headlights are from Garden Trucking The rear bumper is scratch-made from aluminum with lenses cut out of acrylic.

2/ The Dayton look is created with styrene. I glued chopped rectangular pieces onto a styrene disk. The center is large enough to fit a nut driver onto the hub nut.
