So this is my first post in 6 years... Funny how life reaches out and slaps you around a bit...LOL
So this is the best 120.00 CAD I’ve ever spent. I finally broke down and not the 4” hold and fold a week or 2 ago... I’m working on Dragons Ferdinand #6317. I spent less an hour bending hinges for the front mud guard and it’s hinges.. This would have taken me double that with a couple of razor blades and some very choice words... I think I like doing PE... 👍 My only question to the group is this.. Do I leave the plastic fenders off or do you glue the PE directly to them?

Hi,Dave, welcome back.
PE fenders usually are designed to replace the plastic ones. What PE do you use for this kit?

There is PE included in the Dragon kit:

I would assume that the plastic shall be replaced with the PE, especially since the review says that it has details/texture on both sides ...
