Default Evol's Wraith Build thread

Alright. A long time coming but I am finally doing a build thread on my wraith. It has some minor mods done already but now I'm going into full steam ahead on this build!

The Vinyl wrap is a one off by my cousin who is quite a talented artist (much love Shawn you're the best)

Mods to far:

Tekin RS + 13.5 Redline (sensored).
32p conversion.
MIP drive shafts.

And here are some of the goodies that are gonna go on it!

So far we got Vanquish hubs, knuckles, and lockouts. Axles. Axle truss, 3D Diff covers and some SSZ Star 2.2 wheels. I havn't decided on what hubs to run yet.

For Body Panels I'm running Dinky-RC Wedge hood in lexan, the Drop box also in lexan, and the 6 pack roof in you guessed it.....lexan.

Uhh painting I think this time around. I have some stencil vinyl on the way so I'll be able to cut out some cool looking graphics. I have a paint scheme in mind.

Mabey next season on a chassis. For now i'll run stock with bolt-ons. I want to showcase some of the cool panels Dinky is coming out with. I'm aching to get this VP stuff on there too.
BTW what hubs do you recommend on the SSZ Stars? I was thinking the 350s

OH

I'm going to need a pilot to drive this thing for when I get action shots of it...*cough* *cough*

350's will do nicely. 250's are about stock but I prefer just a hair more width.

I really dig it! Might have to look into a set of the rims. What's needed and what size hubs? Did Jerry make the towel?

I'm pretty bummed at how my panels turned out. My stencil film really let me down. It did not stick well to tight curves. Serious bummer. Plus the airbrush was acting up on me. Ohh well. Not a total loss. I can still vinyl wrap them.
