Status: offline 		OK, first off it has to look good and fit with both the wing kit, and especially the New Era roll-bar...

That brings me down to about three of the typical Proline pickups.., none of which I really want, as they just look too....................... pedestrian to me..

I want something a little more - aggressive and racier looking..

Anybody have the Cady Escalade XL bod?? Can't tell if that would look OK or not.......(but with a wing????)

How about the bod for the Savage X?? Anybody have that on the LST2??? Looks like it should fit...

Also, would any of the bigger truggy bodies fit - like one for the Thunder Tiger ST1 or Jammin or even the Kyosho STR??? Problem is, it has to be tallish to cover the rollbar....

I really like the Muggy body, but I'm guessing no chance with the roll-bar too, right???

Anyway, suggestions appreciated...

Thanks...

Status: offline 		How exactly do you have to cut the CP2.0 to fit with the wing?? I just placed mine from my Lightning GT on the LST2, and it doesn't seem to fit - though it does seem to clear the roll-bar...

Status: offline 		Yeah, that's the same one I have on my Lightning GT.. The LST2 specific one is molded out at the bottom for the pipe and gear cover I think - and has the mold for the tank hole in the back too I think..

that would make life alot easier but no you need to cut them out. as for me i forgot to cut them out before i painted it. unfortunatly the paintjob on that one didnt take i forgot to clean the inside with soap and water and now the paint is peeling, live and learn.

The buggy is a proline body, but the LST has the J Concepts body. Very cool looking.

Status: offline 		That pic doesn't do the body justice, so I snapped a few more this morning. Sorry about the dirt, I haven't had a chance to clean it up since my last race.

Status: offline 		That J Concepts looks pretty good actually... I'd do it in all black - but cuz the roof dips down in the middle I'm pretty sure it wouldn't work with the roll-bar...
