Default What are these?

I'm putting together a "build" (assmebly) thread on a Black Horse 120 size T-28 Trojan. I'm adding these to the plane and don't know what to call them. Is there an official name for these things? Anyone?

I'm not sure what "those" are. However, I am extremely interested in learning what an "assmebly" is................

Thanks, guys! I decided to refer to them as "landing gear door covers/wheel well covers/thingamuhjiggies". I think they will look O.K. at a distance greater than 300 feet.

Thanks for the link! Mine are no-name retracts - probably metric. I'll have to measure them. It may be possible to use them.
