I am going to try to convert this RT Challenger to an SE to replicate my own 1:1 ride. I don't think there are any body changes between 2009 and 2010 but I will have to do a few things to convert this to an SE. I am using this AMT kit so that I don't have to deal with the engine and I won't spend any time on the chassis either. There are a few other things to do:
- Convert the rectangular outlets for the exhausts to a single half-round outlet on the right side.
- Mount the rear unit and fill the holes for the rear spoiler and fill the line in the trunk under where the spoiler would go.
- Find a round gas door with a finger lip or carve one out of another body such as an old Camaro or Mustang that I am sure I have around here somewhere.
- Score the flat spot in the grill where the R/T decal would go in order to blend it in with the rest of the grill.
- Remove the whiskers from the chin spoiler on the front.
i think that will do it but let me know if there is anything else I should consider. I have started on the rear of the car first finding a piece of plastic (I think it came from a 68 Mustang GT 500 AMT kit) that I think had the contour of the rear valance so that I can glue them in and fill the cracks. I have also cut a half-round outlet from the right side. Next, I'll mount the rear panel and fill the trunk holes. I have a can of Mopar Inferno Red from the dealer for paint but painting will be awhile. Thanks for looking!
