I bet these panels would look awesome with some carbon fiber hydrographics. Anyone know how well hydro dipping paint holds up? Could it take the abuse of a RC bash session?

You know what is needed now...Something for the rear bed area of the YXL..Like a fake looking bed or something for those of us who do not have that spare tire back there....my stock fake fan panel has seen better days. I have lead wheel balance weights stuck to the bottom of if equaling the weight of a spare tire which helps the rear stay calm on rough terrain. But that has caused it to rip in many areas.
And PM sent.

I've been thinking the same thing. I'm not running a tire on the back b/c the MTZ's are to big and dont want a diff tire back there. A few months ago I tried something a little different and tried to give the YXL a bed.

I'll have to look into that soon that's a nice setup.

Kx450 · 11-15-2015, 03:33 PM

Yea it would be cool and then you could use body mount with clips back there

Lozza · 11-15-2015, 08:07 PM

I'd be keen on getting one of those too

Deckard · 11-15-2015, 08:17 PM

I like the look of a bed in back. I've been thinking about getting the MTZs and I didn't like the thought of having a different tire as the spare. Removing the hinge would be a bonus. Scale parts as filler are a nice touch, Trifish. Look great.

I finally got the wrap from Krawler Koncepts installed very nice work!

Jayn · 11-18-2015, 03:29 PM

Mine is starting to come together!

Nice dude I like the Bigfoot decal!Thanks for the pictures

Fordfreak95 · 11-27-2015, 07:30 PM

I wanted something on the lines of the stock Yeti decal....but different. Bigfoot..Yeti...Sasquatch...all the same....Guy on eBay made them for me. Not easy to lay them on at all. They are not stickers but vinyl decals.

Deckard · 11-28-2015, 12:44 PM

I like the roof Ford. Did you modify Barndog's or did he make it custom?

I'm redoing the Axial logos today. Just freehanded them using some black masking material I had laying around. When the trucks moving, you don't notice they're a bit sketchy. I also took all the Microsoft stuff off since I don't work there anymore (no sponsorship...no STICKERS ON THE YXL!).

Also, I'm not very religious. I saw the cholo Jesus stickers at Autozone and had to have them.

The roof is from CKRC. I've had it since April..ish. The logo on the roof is upside down looking at it from the front..I know. Still looks good though.
