    I love the extra texture that the extra height gives now.

    Very Smick!

    Was it complicated or did the instructions actually make sense?

    It makes sense to him but too noobs like you and me, it might as well be Spanglish.

    Did you just reassemble the legs or do you need to physically modify the mold?

    STL: THanks dude He looks SO MUCH BETTER (IMO) with the extra height WOOTS!

    Pulse: It wasn't that hard to get the instructions once I cracked open the legs.
    I'm apparently going to be doing it to STL's jetfire soon.

    Other than requiring fairly steady hands and being careful not to cut yourself, it's really quite do-able! Shall I start offering to do it for people for say, some small, nominal fee? Custom shop!!!!

    kup: the legs have to be open, then shave off bits here and there to get the leg extension done- so yes- physical modifications are required. as is patience and a good knife (or a dremel I suppose :b)

    *shoves glory hound, lcz128, aside*

    Without the help of anyone in particular, I was able to complete my first custom/mod job. My Skyfire is looking spanking good now courtesy of my exceptionally brilliant talents. I'm open to requests if anyone so desires to mod their Skyfire for a modest sum of $200 USD.

    & to think that without my frequent searching of kitbash forums, your Skyfire's would still have legs of normal length...
