dean1967 Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Can anyone tell me if there are any after-market accessories for the Italeri 1/48 F-18E/F/G at all? I'm specifically looking for cockpit upgrades and intakes. I know Two Mikes Resin makes a set of intake trunks for the 1/48 Hasegawa E/F/G that can be modified to suit but can this be done with ANY other intakes such as Rhino? Also, does anyone know what accessories that were meant for OTHER kits CAN be modified to fit the Italeri kit? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Dean Quote Link to post Share on other sites
loki Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Yes there is. Lots. Do an eBay search for seamless intakes there are a couple of brands to look out for. There are also wheels by Royale Resin and North Star hobbies. Then there is the Aires cockpit. Quick boost ECS probes, early and replaced. Wolfpack Air Refuelling Probe also.

dean1967 Posted October 7, 2015 Author Share Posted October 7, 2015 All of the sets I've seen are either for the Hasegawa or Revell kits. Can these same upgrades be used for the Italeri kit though? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wright2626 Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Beat to fit, paint to match. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PlasticWeapons Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 (edited) Black Box once made a cockpit set for both the Italeri F/A-18E and F. Fit was pretty good if I remember right. Not sure if the sets are available now under the True Details' brand but Squadron should probably have it listed. I've also seen them available on eBay and Amazon.
