Detail in the cab is incredible, in fact, that goes for the whole truck! Will be sad to see the FlashPoints go. Will you keep them for winter running? Pluggers should look great on there.

Lookin good. I think black paint on the front guard will make it fit better. Also next time you're gluing clear anything just use small dabs of shoe goo. It doesn't haze the plastic and is very removable when you want it to be. |

 J/K, actually i used CA glue, on the first one i had a glue that didnt haze that much but didnt stick that good, i used another one on the last one and that one did haze and there was some kind of static electric that pulled the glue invards on the glass so the last one didnt turn out as good as the first one. Maybe i make a new one later. | |||

 Got the pluggers and trans today, i mounted the tires up and i like these ones much better, flows more with the truck overall. The front axle will be a few mm wider. Maybe mounting the trans and motor tomorrow.    | |

Coming along fantastically! I agree with PFB on the front bumper...I think black would look good and tie in with the tire carrier and wheels nicely. |

Very creative and innovative way to mount the motor and transfer case!  The gear reduction fits perfectly between the rails...Nice! |

Yea plugger look soo much better on there! I know what kind of bed to do, i just wanna get it a compleate roller first! Well i got some things done today, first its standing in its own now, the springs i have is a little to soft, will change them for a stiffer one later, also made the coil mounts. Then i got the MAN emblems that Stefan from scaleoffroad hooked me up with (Thx stefan), they are just perfect and make a lot on the front! At last i also got the lights in the same package from stefan, fit perfect in the bumper!       | ||||
