i went trough and painted the outer rims and the suspension, a-arms, motor case, and servo top to it, and i put lights on the motor power supplie and made it so that when i drive it lights up

sorry about the glar and blurry nise

[kookieboi]

is this going to be a full build (upgrade chassis, motor electronics, etc) or is just a cosmetic build.

[mycrors4]

is it me, or does that look like sharpie?
the white chassis parts look very nice aswell
and whats the point of having lights inside the car? u want the lights pointing outward O.o

[fast tim]

wel it is a cosmetic build for now and where do you see sharpie and the lights light up the front and rear lights and put light on the ground

[fast tim]

i did a little sanding last night to get it ready for some filler. so here the rought sketch of it before sanding




im going to do a little sanding to get it smoother

[kookieboi]

buddy you have a lot of sanding to do. should be an intresting looking project. keep us posted. im dying to see how this turns out

[fast tim]

well after a lot of sanding it came out very good



its all hand sanding, and i need to fill in a lot of pockets in the filler

[winner]

i'd see about getting some tamiya putty, its alot finer and i think it'll sand a bit easier

[fast tim]

well i didnt put on the filler level so i knew that it would have pockets in it and it was pretty easy to sand

[fast tim]

quick question how do you bring up your trader rating

[mycrors4]

nvm about the sharpie, i forgot the gtr rims come black not white LOL

trader rating= when u buy/sell/trade something with another member

and if your trying to get a "neon" look then you could just buy the Neon Underglow light kit.. it shoots out green, but you can always change that

[fast tim]

thanks for the tips and i add the white to the outer rim to give it a different look other then the all black wheels

yea i saw that, at first i thought it was white rims painted black, looks very nice like that

[fast tim]

after filling in the pockets and some sanding

still need to sand the hood

and i got a new idea for a spoiler should i use it




tell ma if i should keep it our use the stock spoiler

[Bananabrain]

That looks really good all smoothed out like that, as for the spoiler I'd say keep the stock one or find another one. Because that one looks a little bit to big, but thats just me.

[winner]

looking pretty good and i'd say stock spoiler, that one just looks too ricey

[fast tim]

i am going to shrink it down if you think i should use it

let me shrink it down and then tell me what you think

[kookieboi]

not to sound like a biter or anything but i really like that smoothed out look and will probably do that to mine. looks real good! keep up the good work! oh and i would say use the stock one over that one. even if you srink it done i think it still looks to ricey

[fast tim]

what do you mean by ricey

[fast tim]

i am also lowering it and probly going to get custom wheels
