Please ask around before offering only one color, HPI purple. I am gonna strip my buggy this winter and media blast it then repaint or clear coat it since i cant stand the color purple [:@]. Maybe offer black or a gray/gunmetal color along with purple in case any else feels the way i do.

It looks like we are going to do purple and silver only, at this point. Until we see more people swapping colors out we do not want to stock too many different options.

Once I know anything solid, I will let you all know.
