They are bought. OOC RC Racing makes them http://www.oocrcracing.com/main.htm Just make sure the dish wheel is nice and clean for good adhesion

Just one suggestion though - why not round off the jagged corners of the lexan in the wheel wells? In my opinion it would look even better, and you dont risk shredding your tyres if they catch on the shell.

Yeah they do look very flat, but in person, and from a side shot, they look really cool! I have 2 more of them to paint up. I'm not sure how aerodynamic they are or how they do on the track, but they are fun to paint

How I finished with such clean results...biggest thing is to take your time. Spray lighter coats vs. heavier ones

Status: offline 		Nice paint job! That thing looks awesome. How did you do the hood scoop? That body doesn’t come like that. Is it made out of Lexan too? As for the wheels, I’m not sure if I like them but, it is different, and different is cool…

Status: offline 		The hood scoop is from www.oocrcracing.com

They come clear and need to be cut out. They also include a template that use as a guide to cut the hole in the body. It can either be shoe goo'd in or small screws can be used. I just used shoe goo on this one.
