Decided I should probably dirty it up a bit since this isn't NASCAR ;) I have to fix the front mud flaps as they are misplaced...but this is the jist of it:

Only remaining question- I did a blog post review of the Stuka-- is that format suitable to send to the vendor or should it be done another way?

Very cool! How did you do the mud? I have a truck build that I'd like to get muddy.

It's a mix of Mig's Dark Wash and European mud pigments...mixed with a brush and then I flicked the bristles to splash them onto the car...

Not sure I get what you are asking. Was the Stuka a review sample you got from Lyle? What blog is it published? Best thing to do is to contact Lyle on this!

Formats are fine. I do believe that they should come under our name. I can ask how Nat feels about it. Part of the allure for us, besides getting you guys free kits to build, it to generate a bit of publicity for our site..
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..
