i think that you should go with this paint scheme
but, the one you picked looks good too.

only thing with that paint scheme was that it wasnt used on the jeeps in the movie...but the thought did cross my mind

i like the build ur doing, i actualy did something like this. I bought a X-Trail Chassis then bought the AX10 kit Soft Moab 2.2's and a Tekin 55t w/ ESC. Something was missing though i had no idea what body to get then i took a look at Axial's Trail Ranger body and painted it up like one of the park jeeps. Everything is how i want it i even have painted my rims red and i have made a box for the body but, one thing is missing i dont have anyone who can do vinals, i'm actually thinkiNg of putting the Oh Sh*t! Raptors on mine instead of the Jp logo LMAO. Nice build and i cant wait to see it finished.

i thhink you should make an interior and a cage for it an go topless, like they did in the movie when they first got into the park, i think that would look alot better, or get a soft top for the vendor on here

problem with the interior is the issue with the tranny location...and i dont plan on getting a transfer case.....

just a thought, why dont you take the plate off these wheels and paint it black so between the spokes is black? looks good though!

I'm jealous of your shell, I did it with an hpi shell but I'd have preffered to have a go with a shell like the one you're working on, here's a link to my thread:
