Default Pre Trimmed clear Baja 5B body?

Anyone know if I can find one of these somewhere? I don't even know if theyre available.... but they might be since the SS came with a pre-trimmed one. Call me a wuss and a noob or whatever but I can't trim these for the life of me. They never come out looking right, so I don't even feel like putting in the effort to paint.

not that i know of , but wish they really did make them available pre cut and un painted , i buy mine from DDM for 29 dollars and they are complete baja5b body shells and un painted but you have to cut them out your self , ive bought like four shells from DDM and painted them differant colors when i want to have a new look on my baja lol ,

i have a problem with my shels cracking around where the petrol cap goes , i cut them perfect and dont bend them when i cut them , i dont understand why it does that

buy a pair of curved lexan scissors for $8 and take your time, they make a big difference.

Yep the curved scissors are a must, dremel doesn't hurt either to finish up some spots.
