How difficult is it to shape your own Lexan panels? I'm thinking 3D printed body panels may be too heavy, but if I could make a mold and shape my own, that might be an option.

I don't have a wraith, but I'm building a scx10 with a wraith cage with a 2 door XJ body. Will post up what I have tonight

I just got the pro-line bronco body in the mail. It's pretty sweet. I like the optional doors.

So it came in today and it's better than I thought, but there are some things I think could be improved.

Pros:
The panels are very nice. No pinched curves, everything lines up well enough, it's light but not paper thin.
Looks awesome, and different.
Magnet system for hood is a *godsend*
Very paint-able if needed.
Extra screws/countersunk washers are included, nice touch.

Cons:
Pricey ($90 + Int Shipping)
The hood doesn't sit low enough for my taste because the mounting system hits my battery. I need to find a way to lower the battery down.
The little slots *will* get hung on stuff.
A couple (only 2 I found) edges are a bit sharp.
The included hardware is larger diameter than the stock screws. Keep that in mind as it will enlarge the mounting holes.
Mounting holes are slots, this is a mixed blessing as I understand fitment issues but I really like the (lack of) look of holes better.

All in all I am very happy with it. I elected not to put the roof on as my wife is in the process of making some bikini tops and I have version 1 on for testing haha.

Nice writeup of the body Looks Badass imo something different than the usuall.

Im sure some of the cons can be worked around, im not less tempted too get one now , overall it looks like a great buy.

Oh for sure no regrets, I'd buy another in a heartbeat. I'm going to notch my battery tray tomorrow and get that hood flush.

Had it out in the sun earlier and it sparkles, I'm glad I went with a mellow look, the stickers really stand out in the light.

Was that for a yeti? Cause I'm looking for a Ford truck body for my wraith "spawn".
