I agree, for what it's worth, go with the full fender body. The color looks great.

Dude!!! 

As one who loves this kit, this is one of my holy grail kits, I buy em and build em because they are so flexible for so many options, the green and fenders are beastly! 

I would love to see you do this, same build but also with out fenders.
