Default STOP!...Honcho time!

I'm fabricating a tailgate on the honcho, basically covering spare tire location. I have a convex shape, so it will be tricky to do a bi taillight. It would be easier to do a Uni tail light. what do you guys think?

I vote for unitaillight.

It will be different.

I decided to do a different tailgate, pretty much made a copy and did a bi tail light. I'll be working on a uni taillight on the original. here are some pics.

Looks really cool. Nice and simply but really makes a big difference. Good work.

thanks, its really fun having a scaler. Never thought crawling/trailing would be so much fun! Adding little things here and there is fun.

I personally like the bi-tailight better. I wouldn't bother going uni. Looks good.

B-E-A-utiful CarLo!!! The only way i would consider a uni is if it was 2 in the same housing, like one wide skinny light. otherwise yours looks great, love the angles!

thanks Neo! the SCX10 are as much fun as my onroads (making it look detail and more realistic). But SCX10 can go through many places my onroads can't.
