Hey everyone
Finally Finished the Viper off, had a bit of a fight with it, Parts fit of this kit is not fantastic and the bonnet has never fitted corectly at all despite "massaging"
Please let me know what you think

I love the viper. Always have. Always will. The finished product looks great even though there were fit issues. When the paint and the details look that good I find it easy to overlook such minor imperfections. Nicely done my friend.
