Looking quite snazzy Kalle.

I can't tell the different shades of gray on the exhaust box, but the detail on the exhaust pipe is stunning! Did you just burn it with a lighter?

As good as it looks now, it'll look much better when the paint is scarred up and oil stains & grime all all over.

Thanks Joe!

Maybe i mislead you on the 2 tone, i maybe should have said 2 different colors, the exhaust part is grey as it is now on the left side, but on the right side where the wents are it should be yellow to be 100% right, and im kinda picky about such things.

Yes youre right, i just used a lighter to get the exhaust to look a little used, simple and effective!

Yes, i will spill some extra hyd. oil over it before going in the dirt to really make it stick!

You've done a fantastic job on that... I'm loving the soot around the exhaust as well.

Ref the interior, I got the same as you, but with a steering wheel as well. Talking of detail, how did you make the rear screen rock guard?

Thanks for those kind words!

About the rock guard, i got it from Frank, i think its an optional scale detail.

Ok, i think i go a steering wheel as well, but it looks more like a tool for something, why not just a round shape axle? And the wheel looks kinda small.

This is what mine looks like...

yes that's the same as mine... to be honest now you mention it it does look small and the axle is rather over engineered.

I will drop Frank an email and see if I can get a rock guard as well..

Did you sort the CTI modules out...?

Yes its kinda a wierd steering wheel, i think i will find some other wheel, not that it will make much in scale appearence but a more simple one.

I havent got time to sort the CTI module out yet, with christmas coming up there will be some time with family, but maybe tomorrw if im free in the evening i will try it out!
