[ridealot100]

i have re_done the body kit so it is lower and it looks very nice ill post pics of it tonight because the glue i drying right now and i gotta sand it smooth

[Bad Company]

Nice work ridealot100. That kinda looks like mine except the different spoiler and lights. Did you use styrene for your skirts? I haven't spent much time on mine the last day though. Still need to sand and paint.

[ridealot100]

Thanks

and yes i used a sheet oh 2 millimeter styrene but it was still kinda high off the ground so i took it off and i double layered the styrene about an hour ago and the glue is drying right now.
The fin is off the evo

i am gonna paint it soon and that should make it look a lot better

are you gonna paint it and if yes what color are you gonna paint it?


thank for the compliments... ill post more mods soon

[Bad Company]

Even with .060" of Styrene I used, I had to lower mine because it still sat too high. Yes, I'm going to paint it, but I haven't decided what color yet. I might go with Kamelion Color.

[ridealot100]

heres my car with the new skirts that are lower and look alot better although the car is in bad need of some sanding and paint.

my car is gonna be metal flake/saphire blue

hope your paintjob turns out well(wich it will if your paintn it:D )

Thanks. :)

No, I didn't use primer.

I used some ordinary masking tape for the windows. I placed a large strip over each window, pressed it on firmly, then trimmed it with an Exacto knife.

I used roughly 6-7 coats of paint, I can't remember off-hand. I had to paint the car in sections (top, left, right, front, back) to get it to cover evenly and cover up the ugly designs on the original car.

Badcompany,Hey I read and done most of the mods that you done on the other forum and was glad to see you made a moderator and then you disappered on us. We could always count on you to give great info.

Yeah, well we all learn from our mistakes. I should listened to everyone here, but instead I found out the hard way. From behind the scenes, I found out just how stict the other site was. I didn't like how they did things, so I denounced my moderatorship and left.

This is where I started my micro RC career and it is my home.

[zzmaniac]

This is where I started as well, then found the other. I never joined either for a long time. Just staying back in the shadows keeping a low profile.

[MASSACRE]

cool thread i love my SE how do u take the spoiler off btw?



also ridealot or bad company either one of u have aim? icq? msn?

[ridealot100]

ok, to take the fin off you take a flat head and turn the car upside down and if you look youll see were the fin goes in and you see little little pegs that keeps it on. you push up litle by little on them until the fin pops up and then to put a new one on you will prolly havee to dremel some new holes out.


oh and my aim is fit_trls_ridr

my msn messenger is also the same

good luck!

ridealot100,

I like the light transplant. I thought the savanah body was butt ugly (like all the rx7's). So I did an old body transplant on mine. It is to low to do the light transplant. Paint job soon to come!

[Bad Company]

Nice work bdebde! I can't wait to see the paint job. Got something special in mind?

[bdebde]

Putting a diagonal color change with a fade to another color (3 colors total).
