Phase, the fenders have been trimmed. IIRC, that Nylint is supposed to have a Cambell Ent. high clearance hood (like most comp TJs do). Here is a pic of a TJ with the Cambell hood (form their website): | |

okay, so since the fender flares are "cut off" should i have the tires sticking out the body a little? you got a link to where you got that pic? i couldnt find the Cambell hood website

You guys are close, but it's actually the longer wheelbase L J, the Wrangler Unlimited.

here are some pics of my 1/18 nylint build using an mrc. i wish i still had pics of my 1/6 nylint. i did the same body mod on it. actually just threw it away the other day, too much clutter. |
