Philipat, I used a photo from Gary's unboxing of the Jagdtiger to show why sollie had to replace the whole side armor plate. I circled in green what needs to be updated if you want a Imex Jagdtiger without finders. When I get one I plan on doing the same thing. It would be difficult to glue a strip of plastic to the bottom of the side armor plate to extend it to the correct width after cutting off the finders.
