Looking for help with a building technique!

[PPGBlossom]

Hi there! My first post so go easy on me please!

i'm trying to build a car bonnet like Gwai's incredible Ferrari 458 Italia Spyder

However I'm really struggling to work out how the wedge plates at the front are attached and angled.

I'm sure it's something super simple but would love some expert advice!

There's most likely a clip (1x2, with bar) piece under each wedge (or body), attached to a 1x1 clip. That, or an old hinge (2 & 3 fingers), as those have the advantage of being flatter & won't require a 1-plate offset as the clips will.

Also, for the best minigif-scaled Ferrari (308 GT here): https://ideas.lego.com/projects/114636

Thanks @anothergol! I had a go with both types but it still doesn't sit right so i'll keep on thinking! Thanks again!

And the Ferrari the link is amazing!!!

This looks close, even though you can't have the slope & the tile at the same time, but maybe the end result is a tight fit that doesn't work in the LDD
