I like skulls and flames. but that is just me.
|
Id say flames with red/yellow/orange would be great up front, as for the rear i would keep it plain, but skulls would look interesting and deadly!
|
yeah sculls and flames are always good
|
hmmm...skulls and flames eh?....
now if i could only paint...skulls and flames..... :036: |
A single colour with a stripe going down the middle would be nice, too.
|
I'm pretty partial to flames as well. Maybe stripes behind the flames.
|
Is there enough clearence on the front wheel to steer? Cause it don't look like it will clear the shell when you steer.
I dig flame's myself, but if you can't paint it stay with somthing simple like the 1 or 2 straight line's in the center. Or you could always find some inside decal's. |
keen eye dude...but the shell will be raised a little to clear , once i get the front body mounts done as well....(only got the rears done so far)

here check this place out. I got some from them the other day. I love the way the look. I just got to get them on there right. They go on different than the last ones i did. |
hey thanks for all the input and ideas dudes....appreaciate it.....
i'll have to decide soon......i'll let you guys know the outcome soon...cheers! |
Either way, i bet you will have a sweet looking truck in the end! And its not somthing that costs a ton of money to change, too.

does G10 come in black? or any other color for that matter?.... |
I believe the short answer is "yes".
Go to www.mcmaster.com put "G10" in the search Click the link for G10 Garolite Sheets Scroll down on the right to see the colors they have. Good luck! |
Ya, it does (as Batfish pointed out). I got my G10 from McMaster, and in the quantity I ordered it only came in the greenish color. If I had ordered a different quantity I could have gotten it in black. From McMaster, you can get black G10 as long as the sheet size is 12 x 12 or larger.

thanks for the super speedy replies guys!......:027:

weekend bash got rainned out...AGAIN!!!
so i thought i'd be brave and pick up my lexan shell, masking tape, spray cans.... and rattled the cans a bit.... and....opened up the can.. and... and... painted the "cage" instead!!! the "cage" is officially done! :sweat: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...I/P6120085.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...I/P6120086.jpg |
You didn't happen to get those countersunk washers from McMaster, did you? If so, it may be worth it to check the screws for tightness every once in a while, since the washers will bend inwards.
That black looks really good! Can't wait to see the finished product. |
oh...them silver washers?? i got them from a LHS who sells ofna 1/8 buggies...these are from the new "hyper 8"
....that make two of us! i can't either!:019: :035: HAHA |
well,...apart some mismatched mounting hardware....i guess the chassis is complete.....
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...I/P6150050.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...I/P6150048.jpg even managed to solve the front shock mounting points :D http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...I/P6150054.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...I/P6150049.jpg still got painters' block though....:035: :035: |
