Ken, when I spoke with the owner at the SCR, he admitted that there were incorrect details in the trim, he had it finished that way because he liked it.
Maybe I'm just partial to black cars with missing trim, but I like it! Someday he'll correct the details, but for as long as he has waited to see this car done, I can't blame him.

Andy/Schonye,
When I talked with the guy from Legendary (Jason?) he said they knew there were a number of things which needed correction. He said they were under the gun to get the car to SCRX and planned to take it back to the shop and finish the car right. Evidently when this project started, they were headed in a different direction; more of a modified look. When they discovered the L-89 identity, they had to 'change horses in mid stream' and just ran out of time. I noticed (and in my own mind, questioned) the chrome gills too, but assumed that was one of the items they intended to correct.
For what it's worth that's what I was told.
