| Custom Crawler Body Skinz Hey everyone I wanted to get some input from you all. We are looking at doing some Body Skinz geared towards the crawler bodys out or coming out. Give me your thoughts. Would it be a value to be able to paint a body a single color and add these custom skinz to add some flash to it. Too no have to pay for someone to custom paint one. Anyways here is an example of something done for a 1/8 scale race buggy. |

They may scratch easy if applied on the outside. If not applied properly, could peel easily... but makes for a good quick do-it-yourself'er... |

They are going to have a clear over lay to protect. The company making them for me make dirtbike graphics. I may not go that thick of material though. I may just end up doing Rpp Branded Skinz for sponsored drivers, and for customers who want to role with our skinz |

I like the idea....some of us are not that great with an airbrush :-P Is there a way to make them in reverse so they could be stuck on the inside of the body before laying down the paint? |

I think it's a cool idea. I'm sure some of the people that can't paint would like them. I personally like to be different from anybody else though, so I airbrush mine or pay to have them airbrushed.

Those would probably sell. I would also go alot thinner than the motorcross stickers because those are really thick. Cool idea.

I like the idea and have thought of making some myself as I have seen others do, I'm just too lazy to do it. I'd buy some from you if the pattern was right. Diamondplate comes to mind for my scaler. I also like the idea of making them so that they can be stuck on the inside of a clear body and painted over. To keep from scratching off. If you get some new RPP skinz made, I'd definitely run them. Almost all my parts come from you and I've already used all the decals you sent me so far on all my rigs. More is good. |

I would buy a set for my 2.2 rig still debating on a body but yeah I'd be down to roll with them on mine.Like some the others said too it would be cool to reverse for inside the body before you shoot the color but either way cool idea.
