    The oil cooler exit duct features a bland end, so I decided to attach a piece of fine mesh, to replicate the cooler "meshed" face...

    Regarding the louver itself, was many times witnessed lowered when on ground, so I will attach it likewise.
    Thanks for stopping by!

    Nice job on that oil cooler duct. The mesh really makes it. I assume you are scratch building the louver itself, Spiros @fiveten. I may add one to my F6F-3 as well but I want to see how yours turns out first. Paint looks good too!

    Thanks my friend @eb801! The louver is provided by the kit, you are just instructed to attach it "closed", I will attach it at an angle.
