You would have to paint the vinyl for the face shroud/cowl tan in those areas. That part would be on the face shroud/cowl, not the hard fiberglass parts.

Can wait to see the painted cowl. Also, can you post progress of that. I'd like to try it on mine when I get it.
thanks!

What I have done is that I took some sintra traced the angle of the cowl and formed it from there Ill put pics up in a minute or two.

OH MY GOD! I wish someone had thought of that before. That is a GREAT idea GM! Spectacular. I think it might even have to become a standard. Awesome!
Just like that, make sure to get a pic of you wearing it. I would like to see how it looks on you.

very cannon! It reminds me of the guards on the CMDR bucket but mod for the reg GM trooper bucket. Can you follow the train of thought?

I was strongly thinking of doing something similar. To me, the recessed areas are very pronounced and need something like these plates to clearly define the area. In some of the shots it really looks like there are plates of some kind there.
Looks great, glad to see that it works.
Based on the pic, it looks like your cowl could stand to come down just a tad, to reveal the grey border a little more.

In the sith pic it almost looks like plates are under the cowl, and the cowl is trimed back making an hourglass shape. but thats just my peception. But still that looks a whole lot better then none at all! will have to incorparate that into my bucket.
