Hi Magnus,
I myself don't really mind the studs, but indeed, replacing plates with tiles on
the intakes would probably look good. I'll see whether I can find the right
parts. As I wrote in another message in this thread, the nose was troublesome. I
triesd slopes, but that didn't really look good either. Expect me to tinker with
this in the near future.
Thanks for the compliments,
Ralph
