I think they used some sort of canopy piece orginally, so I made them look like they would have been hinges. I made the nacelles from a cast my master nacelle, and the bridge is a resin copy of the big Ent-D bridge. If you want to know how to make molds and casts, I can give you more info, just e-mail me.
