Cam, the weak points, in all of them it would seem, is around the rear lights and nose to mid joint. I was handy enough with a dremel and sorted mine. I would love to see them offer a single sear on them ;)

Cool, I thought there'd be some work in fitting them, the dremel is always fun.

Couldn't be any more difficult than fitting nc29 bodywork to the 30 lol!
