espo Posted October 11, 2021 Posted October 11, 2021 One idea would be to start with some quarter round tubing that looks like the correct size. You can notch it for a license plate mounting point also. Also look at any older kits you may have and you may find a roll pan that could be made to fit. A few of the older Pick Up kits offered this as an option. Also any kits that have custom bumper or even roll pans in them. Some times just bending some very fine sheet plastic to shape by heating could work.
crazyjim Posted October 11, 2021 Posted October 11, 2021 Glue in some Evergreen stock and putty it smooth.
NOBLNG Posted October 11, 2021 Posted October 11, 2021 If it’s not a compound curve you need, maybe a section of a pill bottle or plastic container of some sort. You’d likely need CA or epoxy to attach non-styrene parts. 1
Can-Con Posted October 11, 2021 Posted October 11, 2021 Try one from an MPC '59 Elcamino. That should be the right shape.
