| If you can zoom up, you'll notice nice, clean, and crisp finish. I'll be gluing the back of the paper. |

| I'm using thick glossy paper to cover the sides. I figured it would save me a lot of work filling in the wood grain, sanding, priming, sanding more and then comes masking and painting. With the screen, the masking will allow some of the paint to seep through. |

| Trial fit. Not bad. Will add some thin strips along the sides to help border the radiator. I already cut off the top to make it more rounded and will add a radiator cap. The extra "flap" hanging down at the bottom will be wrapped under the fuselage/cowl. |

| This mesh was obtained at a local fabric store, to be used for the cooling coils. |
