My Ferrari Enzo is dying (my brothers and I are bad at drifting, hehe).
So, we were looking for a new body, for looks. Maybe to drift inside, where we don't crash, and use the enzo for outside.

My whole family doesn't know how to airbrush, and don't really want to learn ( )
Soo, I'm looking for nice, cheap, pre painted bodies... More of a store.. I'm going to eBay right now, to check some stuff out. Please let me know!

Status: offline 		Like spraypaint? hmm, never really thought about it. Afterall, the enzo is spraypainted red... It chips, but since it's gonna be my learning body, nothing big right?

Hmm, now I have to find a source for CHEAP bodies.. Not exactly top quality

Status: offline 		Most new shells have overspray film on outside just spray the inside of shell after masking your windows etc.
Only takes a few light coats and you have loads left in the can to top up any paint chips etc

For 190mm shells ive found HPIs are the cheapest over here almost half the price of tamiyas
