Default My 5t prospec with its new Punisher 6t bod...

Just painted a new body for the summer, old one was awful.

Couldn't get a 5t body from the lhs, so took the risk on the Jconcepts Illuzion for the 6t and decided to try to make it fit. Luckily it wasn't too bad.

The pink dust on the windows isn't a masking fail, it's just dust from the paint since I peeled the masks off, that neon paint gets frikkin everywhere, it'll blow away in a couple days.





If anyone wants to know what bits to cut off, this is the shape you need to make the rear fit the 5t...

Nah, I'll never get another baja, for one reason and one reason only.

I HATED working on that car. absolutely hated it. Great car, but omg, what a pita to wrench on. I thought the FG was tough til I tried the HPI.

I have both and they are a pain to work on. If you want to do the slightest thing to it the whole freaking thing has to come apart LOL. Good thing the FG is super strong and rarely breaks now that I have it set up nice.
