Default T-MAXX Body Options, post yours up!

Im about due for a new body the one that came with my maxx has just about had it, just wanted to know what other people were using as a replacement. I'd like to get a SuperDuty F250 Body (since thats what I drive), or something cool looking. I saw a School Bus body but that might be a little funny looking since I have Yellow Maximizer Beadlocks and IMEX Swamp Dawgs. Any opinions or Pics are welcome!

Thanks in advance!

Later,...Robby

here's mine with a F 350 body:



it's a pre painted body from Atomix R/C. i think it was pre-cut as well. nice and easy. looks pretty good too.

My latest Maxx body. E-Maxx, but you get the idea. That is an XXX-Main mask, Faskolors- white, blue, black, silver. You can see the marble blue/black in the tribal areas. RCCannuck is 100% right, the paint job is what sets it off.



Nitrobobby's truck has a prepainted Atomic F-350 lid. You could get one of those if you don't want to paint.

hey thanks guys! I really like that F350 Body, my Hobby Shop is having a Body Painting Class Next Month and its going to be sponsored by HPI, so I might just hold off on getting a new one, the class is only 12 bucks. I also was thinking about upgrade to those bumpers like most of you have, now I know how they will look so that makes my decision even better. Thanks Again!

Masked them off using Tamiya masking tape and pinstrip tape. Painted the black area first, then pulled the center tape off, painted the purple. Then peeled off the pinstripes mask, and painted the silver last.

Here's some pics of a few that I have done for my early version T-Maxx. I favor the older style bodies, the "woodie" wagon is my favorite, the Nomad next.

Tmaxx1701, I especially like your 50's pickup, the paint scheme is unique, and the the color selection is very nice. The detailing on the grille area looks great. I have another 50's panel waiting to be painted, I'm thinking I will use your layout and color selection for it.
