This detail set from Aires features resin airbrakes for the F-104G/S Starfighter from Italeri.  You get airbrakes for both sides of your Starfighter.

The quality of the resin casting is flawless and bubble free.  You get the airbrake bays and door and actuator rods.

There are 2 pages of instruction in the usual line drawing format that Aires is famous for and which are so easy to follow.  You will be required to cut a hole in the side of the fuselage to fit these parts.

There is rivet detail on the inside of the airbrake bays as well as the inside of the airbrake doors.  These parts are quite nicely detailed.

You can purchase this and other fine resin detail items directly from Aires or from the many retailers that carry their products.  

I would like to thank Aires for providing me with this product sample.
