If it's a tuber then yes you'll need side panels, a roof and a hood

well the side panels are there to help you out so the rocks slide on them and they dont get caught in the frame. and they add som personal flair to. and you could always just keep the lexan clear

I used pop cans.   Can opener on top, cut down a side, then cut around the bottom. Also if you roll them the other way that they curve and add a rubber band they flatten more. BE CAREFULL THE METAL EDGES ARE SHARP. I KNOW FIRST HAND |

Here is the panels that I did. I went to my local hobby store and bought some thin stainless steel. I cut them with tip snips, used a punch to make the holes and zip tied it together. Added some decals I found laying around.  |
