Can I use Tamiya 12651 on a finished paint job?

Fitting over an existing paint job is possible but not recommended unless you protect the finish. Best practice is to install detail parts during the build before final painting.

What adhesive is best for these components?

Use model adhesives formulated for metal to plastic bonds or epoxy for a stronger joint. Apply sparingly to avoid marking visible surfaces.

Will adding these parts affect display weight balance?

The metal-plated pieces add a small amount of weight but will not significantly alter display balance. They are primarily cosmetic and designed to match the kit's proportions.

Any tips for aligning fork components cleanly?

Dry-fit parts first to check alignment, mark contact points lightly, then secure with a small amount of glue. Use clamps or rubber bands to hold pieces while adhesive sets.
