Just had my friend round and he handed me a Christmas present I though you may like, as well as another Into Darkness kit ( he didn't know I had one ) he also bought me the lighting kit I saw at Telford in November. I'd plan to grab one in the new year to do my build now I am very happy

Hi James,


As you know I had the same lighting kit as a Christmas gift, they are now fitted to my Enterprise and look amazing.


Having done mine I would like to advise you of just a couple of things, you will most likely spot those yourself but thought I would say just incase.


Firstly they are very powerful and light bleed is common, I had primed the interior with grey but this wasn't enough to stop the bleed so I ended up painting around and under the lights with matt black to stop it.


Secondly, the blue and red lights in the saucer are so strong if you look in through the windows you can clearly see them, so I cut some plastic card and wrapped it around the blue bridge lights and a semi circle around the Impulse red lights.


I'm sure you won't have any issues is spotting this for yourself


If anyone is wary of the cost all I can say is it's well worth it.


My kit is on hold now till I have the spare money to order the Aztec decals, or if my house eventually sells I'll take a trip across and get my own whilst there.


Adrian

Thanks


I will add too project on prep as voyager shows filling around edges were lights shine though presure too have a tight fit causes bulbs too sort out due to space between moulder .
