Default New Axial Rubicon Fender well and taillights

Front inner fender wells are made from a saved frozen dinner tray. I always peek inside at the super market to be sure I only buy the black ones.





You’ll recognize the tail lights as coming from any of the spare parts trees that came from past SCX10‘s the ones that came with lights. Painted the clear lenses red (w/Tamiya X27)

The taillights I did are OK but I wasn't happy yet. So after looking at them for a while, I got out the parts box, you know the one we all have, filled with the things we just can’t toss out.

I found these jeep taillight lenses and set out to see how I could use them to make a more scale looking working taillight.

The pictures will show you what I came up with. I like this better.

I think they come mounted from the factory as it is a RTR vehicle? I think they use small screws through the body to a mounting piece on the inside of the body.

if you mean the fender "wells", not the "flares", I think most just put screw holes in the wells and run the shock hoop mounting screws through the fender well.
