resin 67 Nova Grille?

[keviiin86]

Any aftermarket resin or 3D printers make a 67 Nova grille and headlight bezels to fit the AMT 66 Nova?  Out of all the resin conversion parts and pieces and bodies out there in the aftermarket I've yet to see a grille and headlight bezels to convert one of THEE most popular AMT "pro street" kits ever. The bezels are shaped a little different which would require you to remove some material from the fender..but can be modified fairly easily.

This would be nice to have. As it us, the '66 pro street kit, the grille/lights takes an effort to look decent. 

Mine needed a lot of work and I'll hit it with the Revell chrome spray.

I built one a long time ago but don't remember how the grille looks off the top of my head..what did you do to it to look more realistic? Swap to a photo etch grille?

I know Canuck3d is working on such a 3d conversion,i'm not sure on a release date.

I went with the Model Car Garage PE set. I tried to open the kit piece from the back with no luck.

Oh that's awesome, just checked their website and saw the "coming soon" section.

And you know it will be a nice piece.  I recently purchased a couple of his Beaumont conversions (among other stuff) and am really impressed by the quality of the parts.
