Here you go Mass-hole, back cut off, saving 55gms.

All holes covered up, I think I like it.

Cant wait to check out what mods you have waiting for this.
Trying to be patient while waiting on my metal bumper to come in haha Installed a rear scale license plate and putting leds in the front and rear light buckets.

So the kit arrived and I put it together with a few hop ups, knuckle weights, ally shock towers, Hyrax tyres and did the front bumper upside down and it went together OK.

Next to painting, and I am the worlds worst. Every one I do has major flaws and I keep saying the next one will be better but it never is. Patience is my problem, I have none and I am the measure once cut twice/three, four times type. I know it's wrong but too old to change now.

Paint I chose was the racing green and gunmetal with silver over the top so should be the same as yours except my skills are poor so did a single transition from green.

I spayed the black first, arches and bed, then the green at the front, so far so good, and then I started to spray the gunmetal but picked up the silver by mistake, Doh! what a bozo. Of course it was too late then, so now mine is green and silver, gutted really because I so wanted the gunmetal. The silver is growing on me, slowly but I keep looking at it and thinking what could have been. I put the truck bed liner on the outside and wow, that was such a good idea, that looks really cool.

So here she is,




WOW that is quite a compliment! Love how your truck turned out. Super crisp line and the silver looks great with the green... very humbled to have inspired you. The bedliner is such a good trick. Picked it up from a gentlemen over on Scale Builders Guild. Happy trails!

That is pretty sweet! I like the idea of the rack and filling the holes but wasn't too keen on the weight.

@soze - Cheers!! Appreciate you checkin in
