Verry nice. But with bright or flourecent cololours you should finish up with a coat of white. This stops the light from showing through and really makes the colours pop out at cha.

Looking good bro !! I like the color... One thing though, is that white thing sticking out the top your reciever wire? If it is, the first time you slide it on it's roof on asphalt/concrete it most likely will shear off. I'm not trying to be critical, just trying to prevent you from getting a headache if it is.........

Ya..I put an old one that I had for my t-maxx on it...and I was tuneing it and I gave it a little to much throttle and it flipped on its lid and riped the hole dam atenna right out of the reciver....So I was drivin it about within a 30 foot area away from me....But I got a tip (learned the hard way)..If you have an rechargable rx pack ...tape the two things that connect together....I jumped and I landed and it came apart and my truck got stuck WOT until it hit some vine's.....everything came out ok though...also the video is like 13 minutes long so when it uploads from my buddys computer I'll post some pics of the highlights of the vid..
