Let's nor forget that we are modelling stuff here... The clue is in the word 'model' - it's an approximation of reality - we can't*** ever reproduce every screw in the fitments, every bug on the windshield, every scratch on the chrome fender, or even every molecule in the paint finish... 'sufficient is fit' to quote John Donne ? Make your models as detailed as is necessary to let them 'look right' when rendered as you want them... ***'can' = 'would be bonkers to try' !!!

Best is to send me an email from the link at the top right (we cannot make it more apparent ). I start my every day with those emails arriving from there. It's exactly for these issues. [image: tCrA_Help.jpg]

@unknownuser said: btw im peterbilt1993 cuz i forgot my password to my acc and it doesnt work when i send it to my email... Let me know WHEN you like it (send a message from the "Registration / Login help" on the top right of the forum) and I can get you a new password. Then attribute these posts to your old account. Cool truck, by the way.

Just "intersect with model" as Gaieus says again for the other side...it worked fine for me. I had a look at your model...its looking pretty good so far. If you use more components, your modeling will speed up significantly. For example, each headlight should be a component(and would look better if it was smoothed and the circle it was constructed from had more segments). If each of the vertical bars on the grill was a component, you could copy an array to space them perfectly. Maybe you would have a hard time modeling this way, but if you split the model in half the long way, make it a component, copy/flip to the other side, then you only have to model half as much because whatever you do to one side automatically happens to the other side.
