When is a Coronet not a Coronet? When ya put a Charger grill and taillight panel in it!!! I decided to do FOOSE one better. (Yeah, right!) I stole the front grille and bumper from a Revell '67 Dodge Charger kit. It fits with just a teeny bit of body mod on the Coronet. The taillight lens has the name "Charger" molded into it, so I made a replacement from some white stuff channel. The taillight panel is a little different story. The chrome surround is a little small, and it sticks out. I marked around it, and will trim out the rear panel to accept the surround, and it will fit flush. I covered the new "lens" with BMF. I then painted it with Tamiya Clear Red.

I got the taillight panel finished: Next, I used a combination of drills and the Dremel with metal bits to carve out the plastic on the body so the taillight panel would fit flush: After cleaning up the opening with files and sanding sticks, the panel fits fairly well:
