After finishing part B of the build (installing the front end), I would suggest test fitting your servo at this point. The benefit here is that if/when you dremel the nose plate (XF1002), the bits don't go all over the (almost) fully assembled car! You may find that you have to dremel a small amount from the upper most nose bridge piece to allow the server horn to reach full travel; again do this before assembling the rest of the car to avoid C/F dust getting all over your freshly assembled cube! Like Kevin, I had a prototype car and so there is a chance that the nose pieces have been altered for production to take this into account, so YMMV.
The manual is great and unlike other brands, you get useful advice at all key stages. I find the build of XFactory vehicles the least stressful of all the brands I have experienced and I put that down to Chazz's soothing words!
