Hey SJ! If you're talking about the two inset panels, I thought they went in great...I did have to trim the edges of the hole (very slightly) until I had a fit that was just right....

There's a tab missing on part #8 (upper "shoulder" part of engine module)

design note... one of the "MID LB ARMS" is missing a tab... LB's are attached, had some trouble getting all three points to attach on the starboard side, but due to build technique, not design....

Bridge section... Here are all of the bridge parts, scored, folded and with edges colored. Added "teeth" to the forward bridge part (see pic)...
