Default Anyone try fitting Aliexpress inner fenders on the Venture

I found these this kit on Aliexpress.


https://www.aliexpress.com/item/33060074052.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.44673f7 c1oEDJO&algo_pvid=404d8e16-7d71-4b0b-a8b1-c8fe1ba45179&algo_expid=404d8e16-7d71-4b0b-a8b1-c8fe1ba45179-5&btsid=0ab6d70515926248573337076e2d23&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_,searchweb 201603_



Has anyone tried this as an inner fender on the Venture with the stock body?

I have these on my SCX10.2 They're by GRC. They're made specifically to fit on a stock SCX10.2 (shock cutouts, screw holes, etc.), so I'm not sure that they'd fit on a HPI Venture.

HPI does have their own lexan inner fender set for the Venture, but they're probably hard to get a hold of right now.

Yeah As Soze says, made for the SCX10. They might fit with some work maybe. I have the HPI inners and they fit well. I'm not sure if any 3D printed ones are available.

I can't seem to find the Hpi inner fenders in North America. They do have them in spain but the shipping cost is insane.

If the cost of the Aliexpress ones doesn't bother you it could be worth a try if you are prepared to fiddle around with them.

I decided to try and make my own. I ordered some Kydex sheets that are .06 thick. I'll be receiving them next week.

Hopefully this material will be a good choice.

If you have a 3d printer I can send you the .stl files to print the ones I'm using.

I appreciate that! Nice work for sure. What did you do for the rear?

I had a pickup body on it so I made a drop bed that had integrated inner fenders. Unfortunately it is specific to the Axial C10 body and I no longer have a Venture chassis to draw up a set of rear fenders for
