I can't give you too much flack about using Pactra Paint where you can't see it. I used Pactra Indy Silver on both sides of my Sawback's body and then painted over it with the Olive Drab. But the scratches look great.

Just don't know what they were thinking when they killed Pactra.

Thanks! I know KK has the grills for both of these and I still have my JK one sitting in a bag here....lol. I won't throw anymore money out just yet.

I do like the KK grills but I am super lazy!!

I played around with the tires from my gf's Axial JK. They are RC4WD 1.9 Rok Lox with Crawler Innovations Deuce's Wild foams. The stock GMade Plastic rims look and fit great!! I might have to upgrade the Sawback!! I just did one tire because I didn't feel like swapping 4 and back....lol.

Those GearHead wheels look perfect on your Sawback! And the Rok Lox also look great. I just wish RC4WD made Rok Lox in the newer X2SS rubber compound.

Yeah I noticed these Rok Lox are actually less grippy than the stock Gmade tires!! Oh well I like that they are a taller tire. The stock tires are almost like 1.55 size.
