overboRED

Post by rc-stu »

red anodized chassis, nose, motor plate, nose tubes, wing tubes, screws, shock bodies and caps etc. everything else is dyed red. worst part is, i don't even like red that much. need to find some front tires for those wheels... the ones on there are temporary. you'll probably see it pop up on the bay.

Looks like you dipped it in a can of red paint, minus the screws. Me likes, but in reality I would think it would kinda hurt your eyes if you looked at it long enough. I bet your dog can REALLY see it (if you have one) :D

what did it cost you to have all of those pieces anodized? did you have them all stripped and ready to go?

Actually i had this one done, but you're right i do some anodizing of my own too. Before i got my own setup going i had a friend i met on another forum do it very cheap. I sent him the parts and he took care of everything including stripping the original finish etc. If you look around online though there are places that can do it for you.

I LIKE.

It looks like someone ran the contrast knob too far from green.

COOOOOL

I like it. I would like to see it with some chrome or aluminum wheels and shocks on it just a little chrome would really make the red pop even more. but it looks great

Looks great. You should have done a ghost red body on there...with all the paint very thin and see-thru.
