    This looks great!

    Would you mind sharing how you got the front hood pieces to angle like they do?

    I think I might know how to do it... I just unscrewed the hood piece from my Bee, there were four screws holding it in place. It looks like the two collar pieces can be cut off as khairulxx did in the photos and are then attached with the two front screws, allowing them to turn.
    If you look closely at the pics, the back black parts of the hood have also been cut off. I'm guessing they were glued to the yellow hood part that's attached to the windshield, like savio-prime did with his Battle Blade Bumblebee...

    EDIT: Upon further inspection, it looks like there are a couple new "bubbles" on the turning parts. Perhaps new parts were used?

    bb hood

    yes i did like savio-prime but the "bubbles" actually i use a wrong screw.. a mistake and sorry for late reply, here are some instructions how i do it..
    the screw not so tight so it can move up, down and rotate.
