Re: Project Squirrel ...by Krawler Konceptz 5 Attachment(s) Tip: when installing your Vp Rigid light bar, use black heat shrink over the wires so they blend into the background.

Re: Project Squirrel ...by Krawler Konceptz 6 Attachment(s) Now it's time to install the Krawler Konceptz grill. You'll need some shoe goo, paper towel and a hobby knife. Attachment 243680 Fit the Krawler Konceptz grill to the JK body, trim if you see any high spots. A look from the inside before shoe goo. Attachment 243681 Start to apply shoe goo with your hobby knife to the inside where the grill meets the body. Start from one side then go to the other side. Work from each side and meet in the middle. Attachment 243682 Installed and now set aside to allow to fully dry. If you get a little shoe goo on the outside of the body, don't worry allow to dry and then rub the unwanted shoe goo off with your finger. Attachment 243683 Attachment 243684 Another angle. RTR body and KIT body Final teaser, To be continued.......Tomorrow... Attachment 243685 |

Re: Project Squirrel ...by Krawler Konceptz Now thats one good looking squirrel."thumbsup" I'll tell you what. |
Re: Project Squirrel ...by Krawler Konceptz Thank you..."thumbsup" |
Re: Project Squirrel ...by Krawler Konceptz I wish I had your patience, I always seem to screw something up when I paint. Looks fabulous so far. The KK grill is a nice touch, it gives the front end a lot more of a "solid" 3D appearance.."thumbsup" |
Re: Project Squirrel ...by Krawler Konceptz 5 Attachment(s) Before and After Hood Pieces, Squirrel in Rubicon font, Team Squirrel Racing, fenders added...better pictures tomorrow in the daylight."thumbsup" |
Re: Project Squirrel ...by Krawler Konceptz 4 Attachment(s) For install of the light buckets you'll need axial part number AX80045. You will need to trim the lip off the AX80045A-7 so it can fit tight to the backside of the Krawler Konceptz grill Attachment 243974 Light buckets all installed into the Krawler Konceptz grill. You will have to glue the AX80045a-7 buckets to the backside. I used shoe goo. Attachment 243975 The finished look with lights. Just have to add your LED's. Attachment 243976 For an added touch I mounted the radiator from the Axial Exo to the backside of the Krawler Konceptz grill for that extra touch of detail. Attachment 243977 |

Re: Project Squirrel ...by Krawler Konceptz 5 Attachment(s) More KK Goodies... |
Re: Project Squirrel ...by Krawler Konceptz I love the fine details! I hope I can be that good some day. I'm relatively new to customizing my crawler and was wondering if the shoe goo hardens or how well it holds. Must hold up well since everyone seems to use it. |
Re: Project Squirrel ...by Krawler Konceptz Sweet work Their Rob......"thumbsup""thumbsup" |
Re: Project Squirrel ...by Krawler Konceptz ShoeGoo works wonders and flexes when dry so it holds up to abuse really well. Body looks great KK! |
Looking like a killer rig |
