The corners look silver, the cab looks battleship grey. Perhaps its because the photo is a tad light to show the shade of the cab. It also looks like the camera flash is highlighting the texture of the plastic quite a bit, making it look lighter than actual.

Use carefully, as it oozes everywhere. But, it works very well. Put a thin coat on the underside of the corner, install it with 1/2" screws, clean up any ooze. I have 1 cracked corner (happened this fall when "gorilla" step-son dropped my frozen O10! :shock: )

So are you using the Dynaflex to fill in all the empty space and add some extra density to the corner?

More like an adhesive backing to give extra bond and strength. But, yes it fills the gap.

The step-son is very ADHD/ADD. From the moment he wakes up, until late in the evening, he goes like a cartoon character. But he is also impatient. That's how he dropped my O10. In a rush, didn't have a good grip and slipped out of his gloved hand. :shock:
