Below are the last two AEM7AC projects that I've started. I'm officially done with kitbashing the AEM7ACs which was a 10 year jorney, lol. The final result makes the cutting and sanding for the dynamic brake components worth it through. 948 is currently active 929 just saw it's first revenue run yesterday with overall success. All five painted and assembled over the course of 10 years. Obviously the projects have been shelved a couple of times but 2014 marks the year that the AEM7ACs were all buttoned up and put into service.

Wow, great work Kyle! Just the ditch lights and correct blue alone make your models stand out above the stock models. All the mods for the remans look great!
I have a new AEM-7 from Atlas coming for me this winter. I confirmed with an Atlas rep that they did change the colors on the Ph. V model. I would love to add ditchlights, but not sure I could do that without messing up the factory paint.
