There is a slight gap mate, can't fill it as it's all painted. I'm going to have to give it some dark washes and another mat varnish, really not happy. I said these fenders was a bad fit on top of the zimmerit

All of then, the fender runs from the front to rear all the way along the side
I tell I'm gutted it has ruined it for me

Could you use a PVA glue. It won't hurt the paint (try a bit in the underside just to make sure).

Didn`t realise you meant the side fenders.........was gonna suggest PVA mixed with a colour as well but that may prove tricky if it affects all 3 colours mate

Ian you could leave them off completely

I agree. Just leave them off if they are causing problems. Very common for Tigers not to have them.

Ah interesting reference pic, good idea but I have got the bugger back on now. I think the fenders should go on before the zimm is applied then you would get a good bond, zimm first means you can't get a good bond. Anyway it back on now and I have calmed down a bit. It's going to need a touch up with some colour and a matt varnish as the glue is not mat but I'll get there.
Just superglued some of the track to some of the wheels, let this go off before I take up some slack and glue some more using the clamps
