Default Is the PS body a trimmed G6 body?

Looking for a Jeep option for the Wraith, I've got the Pro-Line Rubi ones, but not feeling it. I've also got a G6, and it seems the body would be a perfect fit. I've looked for an Axial version of the PS body in clear, and it isn't out there that I can find. On their website, Axial says the body will fit both the SCX, G6 and the Wraith.

Just seeing if anyone knows, and if it'll work.

Well, curiosity got the best of me, so I cut up the G6 body and its a direct fit! Nice thing is it has straight sided doors, so you can run an Apache interior without having to gap fill.

I found the clear body in the what's new section in 2013 months

This was kind of a late night quickie project, so I wasn't too careful with drilling the holes, but you can get the idea.







Still not sure how I'd trim the fenders. I did it this way first.



If I would have left the bottom part of the fender, it would have a gap, but I think when I do it next I'll leave it on.



I trimmed it all off on this one, but it looks too much like the stock Wraith one. The fenders kind of set it off, IMO.

I didn't look at it. The front bar of the Wraith dips down, and the windshield is straight. I'm sure you could make it work, I just prefer to run without the windshield. But I might try it just to see.

Thinking i might just chop the top of the wraith cage and make some mounts and just mount the body on that way
