I've been doing the cleanup on the body. It seems that there was a sharp edge all the way around this thing. I lightly filed that edge down, and removed the mold seams. Did you guys have trouble with the taillight panel fit? Mine seems to be too wide.

Along the fender tops on the bed...all around the wheel wells...along the bottoms of the rocker panels...the edges of the hood...all around the opening of the engine bay...around the windshield opening...around the edge of the front grill piece....

Odd thing is, mine didn't have the mismatch on the hood like Bruce's, or the sink marks on the front fenders.
I took a pic, but the work I've done doesn't show. it's sort of like a very small flash all around the parts.

My RAM isn't working right, so it often won't even start.

How do you fix RAM cards, other than replacement? Then who knows if that's it? New PC time. My old one is from 2011.
