You guys are doing some seriously AWSOME work on those aluminum parts. I noticed that every thing is savages. If someone sends you something can it only be for the savage or will you do other aluminum parts on other brands, like chassis and stuff like that?



As long as its aluminum, it can be anodized.

This is too good of work to let get to the second page. These guys need some recognition!!! Not only for the fact that I love how that turned out but most importantly what exactly these two can do when a customer requests a design. Once again Great work

BIG FAT BUMP

When I hasd these guys come up with a design for me they were great and willing to try new ideas. I changed my mind a couple of times and they were very helpful. I am still extremly happy with the work I had them do and I even bought another set of TVP's they did off ebay.

Pheonix Stu that is an awsome look you got, can't wait to see it all built up.

Yup, I agree. VERY SATISFIED!!! I am already thinking up plans for my next project.

I will post pics as soon as I get the truck all put back together.

The stars might not survive the caustic soda, but we could put something else on to decorate it, make it more custom. We could put the name brand back on, just not the same. Or we could put your name on there lol. Sometimes we can save the laser etching but yeah it will take on the color, nothing we can do about that. The way its done is they etch it after the anodizing so it comes out in white.

ok, I found some TVP's that LOOK like they should do well enough.....I don't know, I've never seen anyone talk about them at all....RC solutions has some bash TVP's that're almost solid, except for the cut outs for the transmission and a couple other spots.....

with the surface area on these, what could you do to make em look sharp?

They would definitely give us lots of space to work with.

3mm thick (not the heavier aluminum) good enough for bashing about? or would I rather they be thicker?
