    Alright, just saw the other thread right after this one with the reference pics. Looked around and found a 2nd set of decals in the kit. Here's new pics with them moved up. Better? Sent from my SM-G955U1 using Tapatalk

    Left side bulges out a bit more than right, not sure if I can move them without getting another decal set from Trooperbay. Tried setting the start and end at the same location based on the jowl and ears. Could try masking off the tubes and paint them. Have the right color for it, just don't know if its needed for approval or not. Sent from my SM-G955U1 using Tapatalk

    So about wrapped up, but a little concerned about the tube gills that are decals on my helmet rubbing off by people grabbing the helmet there. Now I know there's clear coat sprays out there that I could put over the decals to cover them and make it more resistant to rubbing off. Anyone use a clear coat, or have an idea how to protect the tube decals? Recommendations on what to use?

    Yeah have both. Thought I'd try using Zap-a-Gap on this part since it seemed pretty straight forward. Used E6000 on about everything else. Considering I hadn't trimmed the part correctly, kinda glad that Zap-a-Gap was so brittle. It popped right off. Using E6000 to put it on, correctly now.

    Actually, orginally used Zap a Gap, so was really worried about popping them off. Went ahead and did it anyways, and it wasn't bad! *Whew* Trimmed the plates and have them on now drying with E6000. Feeling very lucky. Minor 'weathering' but the belt will cover most of it.

    Oh yeah. Masking and the layering looks a lot better. Thanks guys! Sent from my SM-G955U1 using Tapatalk

    So, painted and added my AB plate buttons from the parts. Noticed they looked a little different than some other people's submissio ns in that the one's I'd installed had a bit of a rise on them. Now was I supposed to trim these flat? I already glued these on like this. Am I screwed or are they fine as is now? Sent from my SM-G955U1 using Tapatalk

    Thanks! Masking off the edge seems like a great idea. I'll Mineral Spirits the edges and try repainting using the masking. Sent from my SM-G955U1 using Tapatalk

    Just wrapped up most of my build and did the helmet last. As far as painting the ear bumps, would this be acceptable for EIB? Could redo the edges with some Mineral Spirits and redraw the black if needed. Had a pretty hard time with the brushes I have.

    Ordered up a E11 from them a month ago and was in contact with someone over there supposedly who was pretty responsive. However, once I did the paypal transaction to paypal@sci-fire.com got like one more response, then silence. Are these guys legit or did I just get scammed? Thanks.
