You can see where the old avionics hump was. I sliced it off and made a new one out of aluminum. I added one to the other side.

To prep for the new cockpit I cut away the kit's seat back with a sharp blade.

I reshaped the tail area, and described the panel lines that were lost in the process. Unfortunately, these will be lost in the glassing and final finishing.
