since tams T72 has the wrong side armor for a ural, tho some may have had them, will esci's strip along the fenders fit?. might even have to take the front/rear fender ends. thx

Esci's kit is underscale all the way around so I doubt it would fit all the way.

that's not surprising considering just how bad it is. guess it'll have to be lead foil or something like

Hi;

FYI; Yes they will fit !!! As I have used them on my T-72 conversions ! And you can cut the Tamiya Side Skirts and modify them around the Exhaust port on the left !
I also kit Bashed four SKIFF T-64s just to use the Gill Armor !!! Now that's what you call MADNESS !

CHEERS; MIKE.

might've known you've done something like this lol one thing I noticed about the strips in question is they're at a 90deg downward angle while the actual part I've seen in pix it's more flared out from the fenders
