Bought a new body...

[adamsonem]

... for my R/C car!

Finished painting it today, put the stickers on. Looks good I think. The pictures don't really do it service, but the color almost perfectly matches Laguna Seca Blue.

thats awesome...where'd u get one of those kits?

That's sweet! Which R/C kit do you have?


Just an FYI though...M5's didn't come in LS Blue.

I know, I wanted a color that doesn't happen. I was going to do silver, but it's too common a color, wanted something different - and since LS blue is about the best BMW color evAR, I picked it up. I think the color works with the car, they should have offered it.

I got a Traxxas Nitro 4-Tec about 5 or 6 years ago, and we never got it running. I took it out today, FINALLY, to get it fixed at my local hobby shop, and bought the body while I was there. It was around $30 including paint and tax. I also bought some racing slicks which were another $9.

I have an RC, but I managed to bend the chassis going full throttle (it's a solid aluminium chassis), whoops! Man RC cars are fun, though mine is just a lowly GMC Sierra body.

thats a SWEEET body man, and you did a wonderful job with the decals too, my decal work is utterly horribly to say the least! This is fantastic! Love the colour

im gonna go check out my local hobby store, they look so cool, i so need one, not to race just for decoration in my room, and i like to build stuff

Looks nice but isn’t it hard to change the whole body on a car?

No but seriously, you did a great job, it looks perfect.

 

[HornyHornet]

Very meticulously done. Great job. It looks awesome! I love the color LS Blue.

 

[MrElussive]

Looks really great! Leguna Seca is a great color and should have been available on the M5.

I took it out driving today. I curbed two of the wheels ("driver's side"). The bottom of the body where the exhaust is the paint is bubbly, I need to cut out a hole for it.
