This is going to be my "go on the road" rig. I travel a lot to Dr. appt.My family has been "blessed"....lol with a lot of health issues/conditions and we stay in hotels a lot. It seems like it never fails I'll get to a hotel and it's raining or has been raining. So a couple weeks ago I sold my wraith and bought this G6 kit. Just to build me an all around rig. So far so good..
So yeah just like you said...THE WEATHER!

A small update after looking forever. Through many websites and trying to get a hold of custom decal makers. These are the first decals I've seen that didn't look stupid....lol I'll do some cutting and fitting on them but I think these might be ok. There the yellow and orange ones. I wanted some with more color to them but all those wouldn't come close to fitting right.I'll take the two on the top and put one on each side after some trimming to get it closer to the fender.And the two on the bottom will go on the hood side by side. The sheet itself is 6"X8".

I'm hoping to pull off a halfway decent graphics job with those flames...I got my fingers crossed....LOL

I GOT MY OLDSCHOOL FLAMES!!!.Hows this for oldschool.
Autographics vinyl decals from 1989...

But before I put on the flames I took the cage off and dealt with that ugly black gas tank..A great guy on here sent me some red vinyl for free..he's my new hero for the week..He does those liquid graphics that cool as hell. check him out sometime.www.liquidprintedgraphics.com/
Here's the new gas tank.

Now on to the flames. I wanted to do something I haven't seen on a G6 or any scx10's for that matter. So I went hotrod on the graphics a little. I think they turned out pretty good. I had to do some cutting but I made them work.There not as long down the sides as I would have liked them to be. But hey there oldschool flames...lol
The hood.

The side.

And one more for good messure...

Very cool paint scheme Tiny, i'm digging the cream interior looks clean but its different, cant go wrong with a chain steering wheel and the four separate guages look killer, i dont have a g6 so i dont know if theyre stock kit but i like it..

Thanks man....Yeah the interior is painted on the outside of the body.To give it a textured look.It looks a lot lighter color then what it really is.It's a medium tan color. You know like the color all the high end cars have in their interior. That's the color I was going for..

Yea man, you definitely caught it thats what i actually meant to imply I'm not the best with colors lol but yeah Exactly! thats why it looks so good- the color and the unflashiness of it makes it look real clean, luxurious
And then with the steering wheel it says, this thing isn't your business man's commuter truck..
Aside from the outside i mean, clearly this isnt a commuter truck lol
