Ok..........spent a couple of hrs the afternoon sorting the sponsons, Tamiya don`t supply them with anything to cover up the feckin` great holes underneath so i made my own, nothing fancy but it`ll do 
   
Cheers folks

That is the most impressive correction for that issue I've seen yet. Brilliantly done!

Thanks Mark.......it`s a dam sight easier than trying to cut just two strips to fit, this way it sandwiches the whole lot between upper and lower parts and keeps it nice and rigid

Now that's a very clever way of filling those sponsons, noted for future use mate

Cheers Pete  It`s only laid out like that for show in the top piccy.........it actually has to fit the lower half first coz the rear cut out part has to slip under the back plate............then the upper shell just plonks on top
