Something a little different...

Since everyone is painting their bodies, I decided to go other route. There is not any aluminum aftermarket parts available yet to make your chassis look good, so I decided to paint mine to at least give it the "look". Again, Tamiya paint.

I think it looks a lot better than the stock "cream" color.

looks good.

I work with a guy that does a lot of molding and was asking him if he could mold these chassis's/parts in different colors.

I may give him a chassis that I'm not using and see what he comes up with.He mentioned a tiedye type as one which I wouldnt mind having.

Yeah, well I had to take the chassis completely apart to paint everything and make it look professional, so I had no choice to take all the screws out.

Actually, I had already had it torn apart along with another chassis sitting in a spare parts bin.

That is a top secret project I am working on in conjunction with NASA.





Just kidding...It's just a stage 2 without the sticker.
