I think they would look better on Anthony's car than the aluminium ones! He may need to get both to see what looks best!

You know I kinda think your right. They would look great on his car. But the aluminum would add the extra flash to go along with his other aluminum parts. Its def a toss up

Every car i have seen with the black wings just makes my stomach turn ha ha. They look so far out of place, unless the car is all carbon fiber of course

Like mine!

I like them both, but I think the aluminum ones would look cool. Solid ones with TRD etched in them with the two slanted lines in front of the TRD. I'll PM ya soon with details.

What! TRD would be the shiz!

like this?

YUP!

I'm laughing not only at how sweet that is, but at Rod too

I know he's going to be drooling over this. Pick up your chin Rod.

That's perfect man, you are bang on with what I was thinking!

Glad you like it! It took me a while to get the R to look right. I'll make some as soon as I can. It might be a little while. Not sure. Do you want polished or machine finish?

I bet that R was a challenge. Take your time, I'm not expecting them any time soon with the holidays around the corner and stuff. I'm polishing everything that's aluminum on the car, so might as well polish it too.

Great job!

That's not all your polishing!.... Up north in that all boys camp!


TRD looks great!

got my first wheel polish and then on to bigger things lol

I've finally got all the wheels polished. Too bad I don't pack a decent camera with me when I go to work in the field. I pack enough RC stuff, you'd think I would include a good camera.
The wifey told me that my aluminum shock mount arrived today too. I'm thinking about getting some aluminum servo mounts and switch out the black rod ends for some white ones.

I made aluminum mounts for most of my on roads as well. I even made a set out of titanium once LOL. Kinda overkill but i had a small piece of it laying around so i figured what the heck ha ha. I was thinking if you want to add some more aluminum maybe you could add one of these with the TRD logo as well. If that wouldnt be over kill I made this one out of brass but i could, and have made them out of aluminum as well.

That's sweet Derrick! Not too over the top for me. One with that TRD logo on top facing out and the Toyota logo on the back at the very bottom. I like the RC10l where you have it too, maybe an AE logo ahead of the RC10L?

PM sent

Had some time to rig up a steady camera. I'm not allowed drinking when I'm working in the field for weeks at a time and it's hard to have a steady hand without a beer weighing it down
All that shaking helped with sanding the chassis down though
As a reminder, here is how it looked when I got it.
