Any ideas on wheel wells and interior for 12.3 Ascender with Axial C10 body?

I used old hummus containers from the grocery story. Any plastic container you can easily cut into shape will work. Some guys will make them out of styrene plastic. Some make them 3D printed. I’ve even made some out of black gorilla tape doubled up on itself and taped/screwed onto the chassis. Any of these work and make a big difference in appearance.

Yes, as Ben said and yours turned out quite nice, good job! I used bottom of automotive windshield washer fluid bottle (1 gallon) cut in half and then to shape, couple holes, scuff sanded, black paint and bam!
