me personally......

i would use any standard black losi pieces that transfered over from jrx-pro. should be everything except the front arms and shock towers right? if so, have someone machine you a pair of se arms in white, and make a set of towers in plain fiberglass.

Rick, since your having so much trouble deciding, just send the chassis to me :) It will look really nice on my LXT shelfer.

I vote for all original black parts personally....powder coated white motor plate, JRs Choice white label motor too

Rick, just so you know the arms I made are the exact dimensions of the Pro SE front arms, swept back slightly. When you get them you will see they are identical to the SE front arms, just a bit different design is all.

There were RPM white gearcovers NIP for sale on fleabay a few days ago. Had them listed for $10. Can't imagine they lasted long...

Dye your white wheels black and hit the lettering in white paint.

that does look cool, but I think I am sticking with the White? will see once all of the parts get here and I start getting it together. what body is that, it looks cool, right now I was just going to run a Xcelerator body. and I am thinking of painting 1/2 and keeping one side clear just decaled so you can see the chassis.
