The Decal and the Part Don’t Match in Size!!
After applying the license plate decal, I realized it’s much bigger than the actual license plate part!! Damn...
It looks like Italeri designed the decal based on the newer-style license plate, but left the plastic part unchanged from the old-style plate.
It’s an easy fix—I can simply make a new plate from a small piece of plastic sheet. But this Italeri kit is full of surprises, from little mistakes like this to some pretty serious defects... Haha! 😅

Adam Jusyk60 days agoI had the same issue in many kits, it happens often in italeri and revell. Btw, the polish licence plate is fake, we don't have EAA in Poland.

@bughunter I always dry fit my parts, but with this kit, even dry fitting is almost impossible! 😂 If you ever build this one yourself, you’ll know exactly what I mean. Haha! 😆👍
