SKIN DESIGNS by KRAWLER KONCEPTS):
I contacted Michelle about making inside skins for my BJv4 and matching 4pl skins....SHE ROCKS!!! She took my general ideas and ran to the MOON with them! I've always loved "light graffiti" photography so I had to incorporate them into the overall design following the blue Vanquish color. Picked a font and the name "Chic Racing". Michelle came up with the pink touches and heart design. I myself would not have picked pink BUT IT TURNED OUT SOOOO PERFECT! The way she created the heart over the "A" makes it look like "CHIC loves R/CING"! Way too cool. I'm a very happy customer! Thanks so much Michelle!

Here are a few pics...

STAY TUNED FOR MORE

You look to have taken the proactive approach to bullet proofing your XR. Great choice of parts! This rig is going to look good when your done.

You have the patients of some one not from this world to have all those kick ass parts just staring you down. And not have them all together.

I know its smart to build it once... And do it right the first time.
But im not that patient lol.

Great list of parts. This rig will be a looker!

Thanks guys for the kind words!

I kind of approached this rig like my Wraith...bought most of the upgrades so I can bash it and enjoy it. Not let it sit on the table after breaking parts. That really makes me sad.

It's funny you brought that up...I read 4xford's write up on it, bought the inserts and totally forgot to install them while putting the axles together.

Looks like you have it covered with some very nice aftermarket parts and your skins are really awesome both truck and radio, good luck with your new rig it's going to be very nice.

Thank you for all your support and continued business first of all Brit.

The skins looks very nice and I really like the pink color on the C.I. logo. This looks like a great build, you better get busy.
