The main part is the exhaust deflector which has very thin grillwork with the correct offset of the right side upright vanes.
There is a short length of plastic rod to add to the exhaust which requires you to drill a small hole through the centre deflector vanes but this is nothing taxing and adds some nice definition to the detail.
The other parts provided are the filler plates for the hull side panels between the rear engine panel and upper hull panel as well as the two side mounting brackets for the side sand shields if these are to be fitted?
A small instruction sheet with diagrams showing the fitting of the parts makes the set easy to use.
In all a very simple update set to adds considerable detail to the rear end of your M4A3 kits and doesn’t require much work to fit.
Highly recommended.
