The color is fine... it's more of an issue of all rigs looking the same.

I'm starting to hate the color since I'm planing on a new paint scheme for my rig. While its a good siginature color that sets apart Axial crawlers it does nothing to open options for customization with out removing the anodizing.

The green was cool at first...After stripping it all off, I prefer the polished look.

I like it just fine. It doesn't bother me at all. I worked my graphics around the green. I think a lot of people no longer like it due to hoping onto the band wagon of hate...Some popular person says something ain't cool, well you better hop aboard cause after all you hate to look un-cool right..?

I liked it at first, and matched my paintjob up to it on the Jeep I built. However, now that I've scratched most of it off of my lower links, I kinda wish it would have all just been plain aluminum. Also I just kinda screwed up one of my rims, and unless I'm over looking something I haven't found a set of black aluminum ones that I can still use the green beadlock rings with to keep with the green and black scheme. I think I'm gonna just order another stock set, and then put this Jeep on the shelf and build another rig with plain aluminum parts to beat on.

Of course they do offer all those parts in different color anodizing now.

Isn't that kinda like that car looks good when I can't see/look at it?

Or, she's pretty in the dark? You know, the kind of girl you only take to the movies.

I HATE the green!! Maybe if it was a different shade I'd like it better.

I hate it. Planning around link color is dumb. Have you ever seen so many green trucks around RCC? They should have just made them black.

Sorry, I'm on the bandwagon, too! Too many green rigs out there. Oven cleaner did the trick!

I didn't mind it at first. But then every truck started having green links since everyone was buying AX10's. Plus it was wearing off of my lowers and looked like crap and didn't look good on my tuber.

So I got rid of it like this - DCV/Pro - Project Colossus.
