Default Different ways to trim the cage
I've been thinking about trimming the cage on my TH. I need some ideas and i want to see the different ways you can cut them. Can you guys help me out? Thanks!

I'll see if I can get some pictures of what I cut, and what I fabricated to put it back together.

I'll put up another example...

Not quite so cut down, and keeping the stock spare mount (with a slight modification)





It makes battery changes a little more time consuming, but I like the look... (I don't know how guys run the battery in the front, way too nose-heavy for me)

That's cool. I was never bitten by the scale bug I guess.
I do respect attention to detail though.
