Hey I just noticed that you have AWD installed. Sorry for going off topic, but are you supposed to have a huge turning radius with the AWD?

tenchu · #38 11-26-2003, 01:37 PM

so do the RS4 ones fit? or did you have to mod those?

How much are they?

Where did you get them? website? store?

an6e1o82 · #39 11-26-2003, 03:26 PM

I didnt have to modify them at all. The thread fit perfect. I'm not sure how much they were anymore but theyre under $5 for sure. I bought them at this hobby shop by my house..

i got some lug nuts from my lhs and they were 85 cents. just go and show them the axle and wheel and they will pic out the ones. $5 is really expensive, these are just small peices of metal.

how did u do the altezzas and the font lights

an6e1o82 · #45 11-28-2003, 10:46 PM

First I cut off those tabs that hold the lenses into place. I push those little studs and the lenses pop rigth out.
after that i just hand painted the headlight housing black while leaving certain areas silver. as for the tail lights. I Made a stencil of the original tail light out of paper. Cut that shape out on a peice of plastic (0.5 to 1mm thick would work). Then i got some chrome sticker that was left over from my other rc's.. you can probly get these at most hobby shops. Did the same thing.. stencil and cut.. After that I stuck the chrome on the backing on the body, cut the holes out and glued the lenses back in.. i used the chrome sticker so those little stud holes were covered and it has the whole effect. After that I hand painted little circles with Testors "tailight red" (this way its clear) and outlined it with a fine tipped sharpie..

Takes a little while.. good luck
