Updated shots look great and it appears the front fender skirts came out nicer than you'd led on. Good job

I didn't know your carrier had one of the handles welded on in front of the driver spot where the face crash pad is located. I've seen this on a handful of T-16s but hadn't been able to determine if it was a British add-on or a modification done by the Swiss. Since yours never saw Swiss service, it would seem it has to be a British feature. My carrier (Swiss return) and the one we found in the UK within 100 serial numbers of mine that never saw Swiss service don't have the handle.
