I have one identical to that. I'm leary of messing with forcing them forward for fear of breaking. Not sure on a fix either. :(

I really want to thank Razor17019 for his help ! THANK YOU !

Here is Mark, Razor17019 ,answer when i asked him to pay for the missing part of my Mustang prototype (Turbo scoop intake)


"Maybe you can repay the favor or help out someone else.
I just hope it fits on your plane.
Let me know when you get it and if it works.
Mark"

Another true Gentleman on this Forum !

Supersonicfifi,
The scoop really completes your plane.
Always glad to help a fellow board member out.
Besides, that ol' scoop wasn't doing me any good in my parts box. :D

Well done Razor. :D

Good to see a part like this go to complete a model. And what a model, too.
