Default Are all of the Lanier Caps Junk?

Here's what I had to do (check all these)

-fix both wing incidence (way out)
-cut stab so that it will fit in saddle (not even close)
-fix stab incidence (way out)
-recover part of tail section to cover all the fixing
-reglue too many loose things to mention here (especially antirotation rings)
-fix cowl ring (broken)
-rehinge left aileron (hinge holes off)
-fix cowl (fine cracking on it that will surely get worse)

Looks fine now and I think it will fly well but I had to fix too many important things for what the kit cost. Mine also has many dents in it and a white hazing on the canopy.

All in all I am not impressed.
