Default F100 body

this is what my cr01 looks like with the f100 installed.

i don't like the body sitting too high so needed to cut the wheel arches.
also had to get rid of the front to make place for the front wheels.

do you guys have any suggestion for a front grill ?

I think I would have just removed the front bumper from the chassis and run the body with the grille. I do that on all my E-Maxxs without any problems. And since it is a crawler you really don't need the front bumper, it is more in the way than anything.

even if i did that the wheels would still hit the grill while steering when one of the front shocks is fully compressed.

anyway i came up with this (not finished yet )

You can get some light buckets then and punch some holes in there for them. Custom front end
