how do you make a muffler?
 

how do you make a muffler for your car and wear do you put it in too. i just got my zip zap for an early christmas present cause its like my uncle's new hobby. he did some upgrades on it so now its all good. i just need on making it look better. i got a pt cruiser and a honda civic. so if you cant tell me how to make a muffler thatll be alot of help. thanks :D

well what I did; i took the old antenna that came on my 27 mhz controller (you'll probably end up replacing it so you might as well use it for something). I tore off the top (thinnest) part of the antenna, and it is the perfect size for a muffler, just carefully cut it (make sure not to deform it or anything) then you should have a nice sized muffler to stick on that looks pretty good

thanks. ill try out your idea.

Another good one i heard is that the tip of gel pens work pretty good.
I'm gonna try it with my CRX

or you can support tinyrc and buy an authentic muffler from the parts shop:D

All due respect, but for 12 bucks, i'd rather buy a monkey rotor. Wouldn't u?! :D

yea 12 bucks is pretty steep for a muffler....

yea...12 bucks is kinda steep....but hey it looks nice...lol

do the mufflers really work?

no lol....a mod like that would be hotness tho

alright . just checking. thanks

but it truly does give a good effect

yeah. ive seen pictures on what it looks like on there cars. if you put it on a car, can u take it off and put it on a different one?

i checked the one that tinyrc has in stock and its very tiny. i checked a thread on page 6 or something and a guy has a crusier and his muffler was ALOT bigger than the one tinyrc has in stock.

my bad, page 4

how are you supposed to make a muffler with the tip of a gel pen?

here's what i did i chopped off each end of the metal part of the light saber from my son's darth maul toy (dual exhaust,baby!!!)what i like is that they actually have a little bit of weight to them so when you turn you kinda slide a little.it helps in the turns.BTW those star wars toys are like five bucks in the stores.NOTHING IS SAFE WHEN IT COMES TO MY BIT!!!!!!!

this is what i did to the rear of my zip. i got a tailskid from the hobby store (it fits) i attacthed a 2x2 lego (sqaure) and attacthed one of those cone rockets. and then i used colored expoxy to patch it up ill get a pic soon

something better to do is if u have legos and u have those rockets for the lego men, add those they wrok perfectly. i used superglue becareful i had some prolbems

lol, lego parts. i would of never thought of that. thanks guys, this is really helpin me out on ideas. ill try all of them if i have the chance to.

Easy, you unscrew the pen, take off the tip, clean it, then glue it on.

yup true dat I just did that with a pen also got a gold plated spring with the whole ordeal

u can pop one off a hot wheels tuner car(preferred) or the muscule machine import series and glue to yours these look sweet

What I did
 

Well I took the pen tips out of 1 dried Gel-Pen and a pen from Mirage, the Mirage pen was gold tipped and the gel-pen was silver so they look cool together, I put two because on the RX-7 from F&F it has 2 exhaust pipes, so to be true to realism I have two ZipZap exhaust on there, so ya use pen tips very good
