Some nights it seems that nothing goes as planned. It came time to install the cannister. I ran into a problem. With the cannister pushed forward to where the stinger is against the back of F4, the cannister is 1" away from the back of the header. Hmmm. Now what. I looked at the pics of the original Hybrid and their stinger was well behind F4. It is my assumption that they extended the header in order to make a clean, easy install. This really wasn't an option for me. Although i'm sure it worked perfectly fine, I know that as you start playing with header length, you also begin to change the performance of the engine. Soooo, here's what I did. This is just roughed in at this point. I will "pretty" things up tomorrow.

I don't think so. It wasn't back far enough for that. Maybe an inch or 2 behind the LG. Well, I made a hatch and cut the holes for the cannister. Time to finish covering.

Looking good Crash. I've got mine all covered in the base color and the surfaces hinged now i have to seal the gaps. Then i have to do the trim covering, Thats going to be the most difficult part.

Here is an update, I have trimed one of my wings and I'll have to say it turned out very nice. I have to decide weater or not to pin stripe around the edge of the red, What do you guys think?
I'm going to go ahead and trim the other wing and then the nose of the fuse then the rest will post more pictures as i go.
