Very cool Ed! Nice shout out. I like those bullet holes. For dents the very best way is to cut out the panel. Cover the panel removed with tin foil and get the shape of the panel. Then place the Tin foil back on the body and proceed to dent it. It's much more realistic than simply using heat on the plastic.

Good ole Cook County. I can't say anything bad about the police, they patrol my area and are always out there! Cook County in general... different story. Looking forward to this build!!!!

@@carouselofcrazychrisb I was hoping to get a next gen Crown Vic for this build, but I'm tired of holding my breath. Can't imagine why nobody has produced a kit yet. Thanks for stopping by.

Those do go together well, and look great with just a bit of paint detailing. Off to a great start with roughing it up! 😁 For dents, I generally just (carefully) hold it over a candle, just close enough to heat up tge plastic until it's bendable, then take something (a block of wood, ink pen, any number of things depending on the look you're after) and start mashing it in with it. I generally do that a few times rather than trying to do it all at once, be too easy to go unrealistically too far. Have fun, brother!! ✌️😁
