My new lid
 

well I needed a new lid and lhs didn't have any axial xc-1 and I didn't want to wait for shipping so I settled on the rockstar because I think it is a cool looking body. I don't have a airbrush or anything so it's not the coolest ever and I wanted it to at least match my ARTR orange parts a little. still got some cleanup and needs some stickers but thought i would share

So have you ditched the EDGE chassis already? What are you running now?

thanks for the comments guys. I appreciate them good or bad. I know the colors aren't for everyone but it looks better in person tha the pics
I just got a mfm black widow chassis from mfm racing and so far it's awesome. I really liked the performance and mostly the looks of the edge but it is a little top heavy. I didn't run it on droop so matbe droop being a bit lower it would handle better. my crawler was working great on the chassis ecept sidehilling it wanted to tip over a bit much for my driving. I got it for sale now if anyone is interested. I really love the tuber look and was thinking of using it for another build but the last thing i need is another rc. and I just bought a slash lol:shock:

Nice work. "thumbsup" I like that color combo. Post another pic after it's mounted.

Nice, what color and brand it the orange?

its testors lacquer
1831m fiery orange
I got it at crafts store hobby lobby. they got an awesome selection of model paints.
The blue is just some blue metalliic I had laying around. both colors backed with light coat of silver to bring out the metalics

I did pull a dumb move though. I marked off where my body post holes are going to be and then after paint dried I was excited and peeled clear film off body to admire my work and whoops their went my marks on where to cut post holes.:roll: So we will see how fun it will be to mount now. lol

pics coming real soon of it mounted up"thumbsup"

alright it's mounted as low as chassis and body permit and I had to trim some for wheel clearance. I was planning on putting a few stickers on it but now that I got it mounted I just think it would ruin it.well I had to put just 1 on the back to represent the widow. I think it came out pretty good . it's dark so no pics of it on the rocks but you get the picture.:)
