I got a 2 piece one from TCS a couple of months back.
They only have the one piece listed now.
It was the only store I found that had any left, this was about 2-3 weeks before the one piece was released.
If your lucky you might find one somwhere.

I was interested in this body so i emailed proline last week and a dude named aaron and said they are thinking of redesigning it but doesnt know when theyre gonna release it.

He said thats all the info he can give on it.

Crash, I was at a LHS last week and they have the 2 piece body in stock. If we can work out an arrangement where you send me the money or call the shop with a credit card or something, I'll help you out with it. PM me if you're interested.

It can be hard to work with as the tollerances when cut up to fit the honcho bed in is quite fine. When i did mine i took the most time and it still wasnt 100% perfect, but in the end it turned out ok. The hardest part is where the front of the tub is cut around the roll bars of the Honcho tray, if you dont get a nice cut its a bugger to get all lined up.

Here's mine, is mt Comp Scale body down here in Australia.




In this next opic you can see how the to halfs of the body dont line up clean near the roll bar

I actually just did a really hard search, looking everywhere and calling anywhere and i finally found the two peice body in stock for only $30 dollars unfortunately it was the only one in stock but you might be able to start calling the local shops even if they are not local like the one i called was in cali or washington and i'm from michigan but i found it!!! Just keep looking and put effort to it you'll find some.

Not knocking the axial flares but for better proportions the SDI chevy rubber flares give a more scale look. I got them for my jeep cherokee, but havent used yet. My mate BMT has used on his jeep, ill post some pics when im at my computer.

My mate BMT's Jeep with SDi rubber Fender flares. Pic taken from 2010 cANZ Yarramunidi comp. Not the biggest pic, but shows the flares in relation to the size of the body Compared to the Axial flares above. Not better just different to give an idea of what else can be acheived.
