Getting ready to build a wraith. I really like the wrap on yours. Does your cousin sell them or where else can I find them?

Hey thanks man, My cousin doesn't really do the RC Skins too much. I can hook you up with his email address if you'd like to have him design one.

The easier solution would be to contact Neal at freqeskinz.com He does great work as well.

That sucks! I've had more than one total fail in the paint department.

what about trying to remove the paint with brake fluid? then you could redo it.

Got the panels painted up. I'm still working in my roof panel. I need a 6 pack of white LEDs for it.

They turned out great from viewing from my screen! How far are you going with this before you give in on a dmg chassis. Painted with that kickass green you came up with! Haha ..

I'd love to have a DMG chassis, in all honesty though with all this video stuff I've got going on I don't have the time to devote to a full on scale build like you and Josh are doing. I've got an 18 month running around and between her and trying to shoot and edit some video here and there (and my day job) I'm pretty swamped..lol

Maybe some day

SO TRUE> I just shot a short course event at a local indoor clay track...looking at the stuff I got, 90% are the brighter, flashier colors.

Thanks guys I'm not in love with the paint like I thought it would be but I think it will look OK once it installed with stickers and what not. The cowl induction hood looks pretty hot. a little more aggressive than stock

Installing Ti today Steering linkage all done. Wish I had a toe gauge so I could get it spot on. This really takes a lot of slop out of the steering.

Now getting ready to install some suspension links.
