Got a new SSD rear bumper on the Defender. Still no bumper on the bug, but I did put a skateboard on the roof. Cheers eh, Todd |

Added the Knight Customs lower exocage bar and wipers to the Defender. Maybe hinges next. Going to try laser cutting some and see how they look. |

Made a couple of new stickers for my son's TRX4. One is the white sticker on the roof rack and the other is the black letters at the edge front of the hood. |

Looking good! How do you like the tires on the bug? Thinking of ordering some for my TRX4 Tactical Last edited by Yonzariq; 11-20-2017 at 06:26 AM. |

Tires are OK but not great. They’re pretty small. Used to have Pitbull Rock Beasts. They had way more traction. I traded traction for looks. Got some new Pitbull Braven Ironsides to try now.

New body, new bumper (with winch) and new roof rack for my son's TRX4. It's now a Toyota Hilux. |

Never saw this thread before. Great pics and it looks like you've got some really cool terrain to tackle! Love all the scale work on those bodies. Sweet Hilux too... Curious if that's Tamiya gun metal?

In case you missed the updates in my build thread, I've added a 3D printed engine and a fibreglass hard body to the beetle. I've been obsessed with the engine. Even added the Bosch sticker to the distributor. Fan belt is a tiny little rubber band. Body looks almost the same, but the wheel wells are a bit bigger than the lexan body. Still working on windows and the interior. Build thread link is in my signature. Last edited by Tossedman; 06-17-2018 at 06:31 PM. |
