Seen it on widebodies but that's a different animal. Any pictures out there?

riveted on IIRC, you'll need to fill some holes.

Default Click on my build thread...

Link is in my sig. I have a bunch of pics on page one. They are attatched with adhesive and rivets. The holes will have to be welded and grinded down and then smoothed over with filler. Looks a million times better without them IMO.

Default Edit: don't have pics with them off...

Thought I did but maybe not. I do have pics of the process of smoothing over with filler.
