Making my trail honcho my own
 

So after doing months of research I finally bought a trail honcho. I'm really trying to go with a scale look as much as possible and when stock parts break I will upgrade at that point.

For me I love the truggy style of the trail honcho but definitely have my own unique taste. I want to share my build from to stock to when I build it. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...e863b7545f.jpg

I removed the decals to start my touches.

After trying to find a look I wanted to go for I came up with the idea of a black kicker panel and then took it out to play.

I next took an old lunch meat container and fabricated some inner fenders. After fitting them properly I painted them black to make sure it had a scale appearance.

I decided the black wasn't the look I wanted and went with a camo kicker panel. This is much more to my taste.

The last thing I installed over the weekend is some custom plates I ordered.

My next part of my project is to install my led kit.

Thank you for checking my build out so far and I will update as I continue to build it.

So far, so good! Will you be installing an interior at some point?

Re: Making my trail honcho my own
 

I will be. Haven't decided fully one what I'm going to do with an interior.

So I decided I wanted a different look for my lights. I really dig the look so far. Still have a few tricks for them.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...12a41e7d9d.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...c1797104cb.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...4dc23ba753.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...1d047bfeb3.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...bc2eb215c6.jpg

So continued working on my light upgrades tonight. Kind of flying by the seat of my pants with it and really digging it. I haven't seen too many if any set up like mine.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...b8ea2e3faa.jpg

Installed some red lights on the bed. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...a07e4f297d.jpg

Scale Magpul sticker


I will continue to build my Honcho when I get new ideas. I am currently deciding on an interior to help hide the wiring. And then as parts break I will decide on which upgraded part I will get. I have actually bent an axle I'm pretty sure as my wheels have wobble when going in a straight line. But that's all part of the excitement. Stay tuned for more updates.

Being from the PNW I had to add a touch of fishing in here. Just have to figure out where to mount it.

Looks great. Where did you get the lights you put on the hood?

I like the lights in the bed of the truck but not super hot about the lights upfront but that might just be my ocd inside crying out :)
