erm from seeing what everyone else has done, they always cut an area out of the front valence.

when youve done it with an angle grinder or similar though........ MAKE SURE you paint the bare metal.

to do this i used humbrol enamel paint like what you use on airfix models or similar!!!! found in model shops, it avoids getting overspray etc

i had to do it when i cut my bonnet vents out....... looked well funny with a TINY paint brush painting my full scale model :lol:
