Here's mocking-up fog lamps I did today. Hulk and I had a discussion a couple of weeks ago as we both wanted this. But not having a pair of the right size and similar looks fog lamps, we shelved the idea until we find a nice one.     This pair came-off a Tamiya Pajero. Oh yeah, put in some electronics to take her for a test run. | |

Sweet rig. How does it handle with the spare on the rear? Are you planning on rear steer like the 1:1 you had pictured above?

Thanks Ecoli! The spare gets the closer to 2010 KOH version.I'll have to get her on a rock trail to observe impact on performance. I like FWS. I'll need to get in a rear servo mount and grab a front axles. It's going t be tight. Here's a comparison in size with something familiar.   Still waiting on the RC4WD ultimate scale shocks. These thinner shocks should help get more bind-free articulation, and scaleness, as well. |

I agree, it looks great but I would like to see some nice color photos without the tricks and effects. BTW, someone has money. 2 sets of them Black Widows? WOW!

 Thanks to SwissSteph for the proto 4-link mount, great quality and fits like a glove. Now just waiting on a set of the RC4WD ultimate Scale Shocks. Guys in the forum say they work fine. | ||

The blue is absolutely sick. I can't wait to see this thing in action. Watched your vid too- sweet save at 1:46. All in all, looks fantastic siggy. |

It is the AERO Metallic Blue by Schmincke #28 904. Apologies for not too good picture as these are illuminated by fluorescent/incandescent bulb. Will get better ones tomorrow.  Axles are just mocked-up, adjustments to links/shock length is necessary. | ||
