I can't find SpazStix anywhere here locally. I thought you were supposed to back it with a special black backing paint, though?

thx guys for the props
it will fit anything from a savage to a t-maxx i had it sitting on my daughters rustler and it fit pretty good ,but
its a crawler are a shelf queen body
as far as the chrome paint
white backing makes the chrome pop if you can get the flouro white which is what i used it looks even better
thay say you can use what ever color backing for differnt tones but for the real chrome look flouro white paint is the
shizznit
