I finally got around to detailing a Proto 1000 GP15, its been sitting idle for a while
Before:
Thanks to the feedback from users here, I was able to figure out how to do the detailing, I added MU hoses, brake hoses, Cab sunshades,deflector and a few other details. I painted the MU hoses black and other parts a Dark UP Gray.
After-

Have you thought about a fancier horn, and grab irons? Your work looks good.
Also, though you may not be able to light the ditch-lights, have you considered MV lenses? they're cheap and they'll look better than just painting the light housings white.

Thanks,
The stock horn matches the prototype, but i may swap it out in the near future.
Those are actually the stock lenses that came with the ditch lights.
