Diesel detailing

Post by JMORG » Fri Apr 14, 2017 7:07 am

Hi guys,
Looking for some diesel detailing items such as: Exhause, horn, filter, louvre panels/doors and other items.
IP used to do a dress up kit for their old Jesse model but they obviously stopped doing that years ago.
Anybody have any ideas?

I mostly use details from shipbuilding. We have a hobbyshop in town which sells louvres and horns etc. from billing boats and Graupner. They are dirt cheap and made of brass or aluminium.

Cheers guys,
We traditionally used Essel, but they seem to be reducing the detailing items that they stock. They no longer do bonnet doors or anything like that...
