Some nasty wear in front of the slings - I wonder if they tried to remove the factory mylar that was placed in front of the slings ?

Yeah, looks like mylar removal gone wrong.  The inlanes look to have suffered the same fate.  Not like they'd wear naturally like that.

the wear is just an all-blue area with no designs, color match and it will be sweet

Correction .. Just been looking at SMDM on IPDB and the areas in the pic in the listing that look like wear are actually clouds and part of the artwork ... WAHOO !!

Will post some pics once it arrives.
