Centuri Nomad Clone Build Part 13 Chrome Trim

I still have some chrome Monokote trim left from other projects.

The original kit had some self adhesive chrome included. This clone kit didn't include them.
These chrome accents really set off the model and should be added.

The strips start at the lug standoff and go over the vanes and around the entire tube. They are a little tricky to have both ends line up on the other side.
I pressed the chrome into the root edges of the vanes with the rounded back end of a single edge razor blade.



Keep looking ahead as you go around the tube to have the ends line up. Trim the overlap off at the root edge of the lug standoff.
