  5. Hi all, just finished up on this one, went for a tough street / strip look, sorry the pics are abit grainy, lighting wasn't the best, I'll get some wip pics up shortly too. Thanks for looking ?
  6. Hi Mark, thanks for your reply, the hoods appear to have flattened out or even starting to curve too much the opposition direction rather than curve in to shape with the body and sit flush. The only way I have been able to make them fit is by heating and clamping them back into shape ( slightly more than needed to allow for recoil) and hoping they fit but it's very difficult to get them perfect as if not you need to repeat the process again. I believe these hoods should fit better than that when casting and not need to be reheated and reshaped to fit correctly. Thanks Nick
  7. Thanks for the tip Karl
  8. Hi David, thanks for the tip
  9. Hi, I did email them but I'm yet to receive a reply, ive never tried to make my own cowl hood but might try it out in the future, thanks
  10. Hi Bill, thanks for the tips, I'll give it ago
  11. Hi all, just after some advice. I've used these hoods in the past and also just received a new lot for future builds but the resin hoods never fit well. I've tried reshaping them by trying to heat them and set them back into place but its very difficult to get them perfect. Ive ordered them from Competition Resins and their stuff is good but the hoods also seem to be an issue. Does anyone else have any advice or tips on how to get the hoods to fit properly? I've supplied some pics for reference. Thank you for your help.
  12. Thanks all, I'll add some individual pics of each shortly
  13. Hi Matt Unfortunately I didnt think to take any in progress pics but I'll do so in future builds ?
  14. Hi all, just sharing afew models completed in 2015, I'll add more detailed pics in the near future. Thanks for looking
  15. Same here, I ordered resin parts off him years ago... Still waiting!! After numerous emails nothing. I reported him on scam alert. My advice stay away from this scammer !
