Nice eye! yup...at the time i was searching for parts (this Spring time) the CRP front brace wasnt available so i scored a 3D printed one. i like the CRP one better but this one works good and adds some more color to the front. it wont match the original wheels that are going back on it as they are kinda off white colored from age i guess...but i like em better than these bright white rere wheels....plus i clear coated them with automotive clear

I can't believe there isn't more love for the Black Motor , god when i was eleven looking through Tamiya brochures that was my dream ticket , i know its not really all that but to me it was like the Lambo Poster on my bedroom wall
