i took reapers measurements( over a black squadron ) that he gave here
ok its a soild metal case with a plastic back held on by 4 screws

heres the inside

i w

give it a textured look like the original so i am using this paint
but so far its not doing nothing it smooth so i dont know what to do
the screws on the front should be covered up so you wont see them
the holes are drilled for the lights
more to come...............
