Hmmmmm… ::opens up the nu ver ka box from the unopened backlog:: looking at the fin funnel parts i can tell that it was a sticker or something else that was inset into the surface of the plastic. There are recesses there so its just a matter of finding a suitable material (rainbow shiny plastic), cutting out the parts and likely gluing them in place. It is some amazing work and VERY tiny to fill those recesses.
Just buy some aurora stickers. Then make some templates of the crevasses. This is like making a custom gasket for lets say an intake manifold on an engine, except using a gasket sheet, use some normal paper. Lay the paper over the inside of the fin funnels. Then a blunt but straight object like a very dull knife and gently scratch along the edges of the crevasses on the inside of the fin funnel. Take the paper off and voila, a template for cutting out the aurora stickers. Oh, and make sure the paper isn’t too thick.
At least that’s the way I would go about it. Hope this is of some help. Happy building!
Nice mod, and good advices again from @teetee580. Am finding so much mod on this kit I think am good for the next couple of months as I prefer to concentrate on one kit at a time.
and that’s cheap compared to the “platinum Fix Figuration RX-78-2 ver. KA” you can’t buy it but it has $250,000 worth of platinum and a diamond for it’s eyes, but back in 2007 it seems his price tage was comparable to that PG, only he’s about the size of an HG

That’s still “cheap”, the most expensive gundam are the ones made of metal and precious stones of the PG Astray-$47,000!!Who would buy this?
The same freaks that buy gold plated cell phones.
thats wht i was thinking but ive been wondering if there was another way of going around that
