Default crawling for a long time..never got a new body..but i have one now!

been running the stock body forever so i thought i would get a ckrc baja bug body. I tried to get a good yellow stripe on it but it didnt really turn out..but the blue really looks nice i think. tell me what you think.

nicely done, better than I can do.

I myself just picked up my first replacement body...... just need to figure out how to paint it, mount vertical body posts, align body to posts, make holes, etc.

mark the body mount holes before you paint with a sharpie pen. just put a little dot. it will turn out perfect because u can see right thru the body.

Another tip an old friend taught me is to use your body reamer and while the body is still clear cut the holes for the body mounts then paint it.

As any real painter will tell you. You should get all the body work done before you spray!
