I've compared others online to Yahu brand. Nothing comes close to perfection that Yahu. I've got a few IP on my wish list for several kits I'm hoping to acquire as I go along. You won't be disappointed I can guarantee you.

Carlos,
That’s weird! They’re showing up just fine for me even after restarting Safari, and clearing cookies/cache and all that.
Anybody else?

Mr. Mustang! Thank you! I got pulled into another teleconference. And between taking notes I assembled her, and wired her up. Then did some touch ups.
I’m really counting on the wash to help take the shine out of those wires LOL, but if that doesn’t happen, I have a brush and steady hands...

Wow!! That's really looking the part there Kenny. That wash will help out and if it doesn't a little dry brushing of ground up brown or black pastel over the areas you want toned down will flatten that finish out to where you want it.

Yeah buddy, that’ll work just fine if the wash doesn’t. And honestly, who cares if they shine a little? They’ll be under the cowl after all and that shininess might bring the out just enough to catch the eye and add interest, which is fine. Sometimes it’s cool not to do things “to scale” or whatever to slightly accentuate things. We’ll see.
