While I find UE stuff beautiful in its design, the monochromatic color scheme of polished aluminum doesn't do much for me. I wouldn't have hesitated to do the same as you. I meant more because of potential loss in value and possible backlash. I don't know how most rc guys are, but some people don't like it too much when you change something they admire. To which I say screw it anyway! But definitely keep us posted on the progress, looks awesome.

My thoughts exactly! I like the anodizing. Your Lightning is now different from every other Lightning out there- making it even more pricele$$.

If someone doesn't like what you did, well... Who cares! It ain't theirs!

Like stated before some people just like things in different variations due to individual taste. Some do not like UE gear at all because of the cost, but in comparison some people don't care for Austin Martin, Farrari or Lamborgini either, but that does not take away from the fact that they are at the top of the automobile industry in performance and appeal. Like some I am on the fence about the anodizing of this stuff, but for the record I think it is impressive regardless of the value or lack there of that it may impose. His color scheme combination and the way it all flows together looks very nice, and I think it is just another way to improve on an already impressive engineering design. The cost of the anodizing is a bit more than I am willing to part with for the novalty, but if I could get it done cheaply I would try it out in other colors like Blue & Yellow, or Yellow & black.


SUPERMAXX YOUR LIFE.
