Nice i love the blue, def leave the crome on and def get some 6mm offset rims, i have them on my CTS-VR body and they fill the car out so nice, the shell is labled as 190mm body but i think its more of a 200mm body

check out mine i did mine in metalic red to match my real CTS, since these pictures where taken i added the door handle stickers, and cut out CF b pillers to match the CF front and Rear window banners, and the side of my wing

Yoko mirrors
yoko wippers
yoko muffs
break rottors
prform wing
tt-01r

let me know what u think?





im going to get better pics during the day time..

I think some Chrome HPI TE-37's with 6mm offset would set that car of nicely

The proline 10 spokes in Chrome really do look Great ..

Black rims suck

thats a sweet cts-v shell and it looks nice with the chrome rims, but to me the spoiler looks too big for the body.

yupp there is no way to hook it on the body, the plastic part the muffs are screwed onto, came with the muffs and seems to line up perfectly with the rear bumper
