Just FYI, I think in the SCX10.3 forum I saw the replacement JL bodies and related hardware do not come with any screws. | |

I figured as much on the hardware. I'll just spend a little time on KNK's site getting what I need. Thankfully I have my 10.3 manual to help. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk | |

Man that’s sharp! I was noticing the scale lug nuts. They look so much better with those wheels. I have a set of OMFs and they look too long on those. I have the SCX10III JLU body on my VS410 pro. It turned out really nice. I just have to install the inner fenders. The last one just finished printing a few minutes ago. Once I get those on there I plan to post up some photos! Rob |

Made a little progress, just waiting on the hardware I ordered from KNK to show up and I can start adding the details. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk |

JLU body looks great! These bodies look so good on the VS4 chassis! I’ve been thinking about getting on for my Pro. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Making a little more headway on my VS410 JLUltra. Some more body details done. I'm currently putting on the 3d printed door hinges, hood hinges, rear hatch and swing out door hinges. Yes those are tiny little screws that require a jewlers screwdriver. They are miserable! But I think the juice is worth the squeeze. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk |

Not a lot of progress to report. My knights customs body mounts and sliders are being held captive in the mail locker at the end of the street (stupid story here) I finished all the hinges and most of the body details. Mounted the front bumper and mini 9.5cti winch, still waiting on fairlead to show up. USPS lost my interior and driver and won't admit to it, only saying it's delayed when 5 orders I've placed with amain after that order are here. This is a cursed build I swear! Anyway, the Mytrickrc lightning kit arrived, along with some c pillar lights from RC4WD, and some real headlight lenses (those headlight stickers are making me twitch!)

Headlight lenses and pillar lights installed. Also got the headlight LEDs and the halo lights installed behind the headlight lenses. That was a super tight fit getting all of that in there. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk |

Them hinges look great! Maybe I missed it, but where did you get them? Also, I like the pillar lights. Is there a kit that can be bought or are these homemade? |

The pillar lights are from RC4WD. I really like the look of the hinges, and also the headlight lenses. Not sure why axial went with stickers, when they added so many other scale features on this body. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk | |

I snatched the gray wheels off my SCX10 III, what you say? The black or these? I'm personally leaning towards the gray. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk |

So I finally got some parts in. The fairlead for the winch, my shapeways order came except they shorted me my rear body mounts, so I only got sliders and front body mounts, bummer! Have an email in to them. And the 10.3 interior showed up miraculously! So I got a little bit to keep me going forward. Damn I wish I had the rear body mounts! That's going to determine my rear bumper! Got notification my inner fenders shipped from shapeways as well. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk |

I also vote for the gray Methods! They look great on there! I received my hinges yesterday. I see what you mean about the screws. They are microscopic! |

The grey wheels are staying, I ordered up some CI foams and I will pull the Milestar tires off the grey wheels and put the BFG's on them. Then the black wheels and Milestars will go on the scx10.3. Sent from my moto z4 using Tapatalk | |
