REVELL PETE 359 SNAP KIT FENDERS FOULING WITH AMT PETE 359 FRONT BUMPER

[JARRNO88]

  I JUST INSTALLED A SET OF FRONT FENDERS FROM A REVELL PETERBILT 359 SNAP KIT ONTO THE HOOD ON MY AMT PETERBILT 359  KIT AND EVERYTHING SEEMED TO WORK FINE UNTILL I TEST FITTED THE FRONT BUMPER AND FOUND THAT HOOD WILL NOT TILT OPEN BECAUSE THE REVELL FRONT FENDERS FOUL OUT AGAINST THE AMT FRONT BUMPER.  HAS ANYBODY ELSE USED THE SNAP KIT FENDERS ON THERE AMT 359 AND HOW DID YOU FIX THIS PROBLEM ? THANKS FOR YORE TIME, JARRNO88

 I JUST WANTED TO LET EVERYONE KNOW THAT I STRAGHTENED OUT THE PROBLEM WITH THE REVELL SNAP KIT FENDERS FOULING OUT AGAINST THE FRONT BUMPER ON MY AMT PETERBILT 359.  I REALLY LIKE ALL THE DETAIL THAT THE REVELL FENDERS HAVE AND I DID NOT WANT REMAKE THE HOOD HINGES SO I SET THE HOOD UP TO LIFT OFF AND ON.  I JUST CUT A NOTCH ON TOP OF THE CAVITY WHERE THE HOOD HINGE PINS GO INTO SO THE HOOD CAN BE LIFTED OFF AND ON.  I FIGURED I THAT I WOULD NEVER BE DISPLAYING THE MODEL WITH THE HOOD TILTED OPEN VERY MUCH  SO  THE DETAIL ON THE THE FENDERS ETC. WAS MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE HOOD TILTING.  JARRNO88
