Jo - those grill transfers are very effective -

Yeah - I thought they'd be ok, but I was pleasantly surprised at the effect once they were on

I look forward to seeing this finished

Me too!

great work here Jo B) must have been very fiddly attaching those nameplates in N

Actually it was easier than on a bodyside - just line them up with the windows

Besides, as my mate says, in N no one can see the detail lol

lol true i guess did u use superglue to fix them on?

Nah, satin Railmatch enamel varnish. Spread it on the rear thinly with a cocktail stick, gives 10 mins or so of easy adjustment, then leave overnight to harden. You have a tacky hour or two if you do notice a slip, and once the top coat of varnish goes on, any slight spillage from under the plate is hidden. Also a top tip from Brian at Shawplan - use scissors to cut out nameplates from the fret. Worked very well, I used a pair with blades about 2inches long pinched from my mum's card making kit. Apparently it's the shear action that makes them better than side cutters
