Love what you did! Do you think the 1/18 D90 body is too small to put on a 1/18 Losi mini crawler? I know the Gelande is small for a 1/18th.

Finally decided on a colour after painting it twice hehehe, the camel trophy just had to be camel yellow, nothing else was really doing the job. I had a vision but it didn't work, just looked wrong. So this little pickup is taking shape, loving the backlit dials Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I have both the Chinese body and an original Rc4wd one - there is no difference- look like they're out of the same mound to me. Both as tough and as detailed as each other Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk | |

| Re: D90 pickup I picked up some Kahn arches for cheap, they're 3D printed so the finish took a lot of filler primer and sanding to get right. The vents in the front wings were lacking detail so I've cut them out and have a plan Drilling and tapping some threads for some more details that are in progress Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Left the clamps on for around 12 hours as I was worried about adhesion, looks to have done the job as when you lined the wings up it was as though the shell was twisted slightly - probably from cutting the front out and adding the Kahn front end. Still got to glue the rears but will do that before I head out with the other cars this morning and hopefully done by this evening. I liked that this was a bit different from other mudflats I've seen so I was sold, took a bit of dremel work to get them fitting properly... This is the mesh I used - 1mm for the small holes in the top of the flap mounts. And the Kahn additions, pretty happy - still a bit rough in places but the 3D printed parts were not the best - won't be buying those again. Used the same mesh for the various grilles. Got the front mud flaps fitting nicely too Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
