The quality of the resin casting is flawless and bubble free.  The inside of the exhaust tubes is ribbed and there is photo etch parts that go inside the exhaust as well as photo etch plates to go on the outside of the exhausts for added detail.  The instructions are clear and easy to follow.

The trickiest part of the F-22 is the nozzles as they are complicated and loaded with detail.  This set is very nice indeed and will give your Raptor an improved level of detail in this area.

You can purchase this and other fine resin detail items directly from Aires or from the many retailers that carry their products.  A list of some of those retailers can be found here.
