Damage includes, Rear bumper cracked, Some scratches on one fender flare and rear door and one rock slider is slightly bent. You cant notice it with the body off but when the body is on the slider doesnt line up perfectly. Also since it was wrapped in bubble wrap for 45 days, on the roof there are small circles EVERYWHERE in the paint. Automotive paint so maybe i can wax it and they will be gone??? Pics tomorrow This this really is a work of art. Maybe Ill just sell all of my other rigs and just keep this one...  OH and the 4runner the Mike is building me of course!

b4 u wax it compound it and it will remove any marks. i noticed when waxing my bronco if it had water spots and i waxed over them it would be like they are waxed into the paint and is a b!tch to remove.

THE GOOD OK here are some pics. Ill post the good in this post, and the damage in the next. Awesome paint!!  The T Rex 44's look mint under there!  Great stance. This thing weighs a ton!  XJ no 049 with Skyjacker suspension lift!!!    Body off   Front coils  Rear Leafs  Even the hubs say Jeep. Such tiny parts on this thing. Very true scale. Stefan is an artist!!  |

OK the BAD!! Slight scratches  Cracked rear bumper  Driver side rock slider slightly bent. Hard to see but with the body on you can see it bends inward slightly.  More scratches   Hard to see but there are 100's of tiny circles on the roof from being wrapped in bubble wrap for 45 days. I think I can get these off. The paint on the hood is flawless so I hope I can get the roof the same.  Closeup of the rear bumper  |
