anyone ever heated their diecast up and bent it? deciding not to do a roof chop on the ford but was thinking of cutting the a-posts and heating the roof up along the middle then bending it forward to give it like a sloping roof

Shouldnt need to heat mate diecast is soft enough to bend without, it does tear though so be careful
