On going rough rider project

Post by murphy3428 »

I found tis on craigs list a couple months back for 20.00 it was missing the radio box but every thing else was there the body was painted once so it was in great shape the condition of the buggy it self was like new I couldn't see any signs of ware. Anyway just waiting for a couple of things to finish it off.

Looks good so far. I love the red you used but I would have skipped the Carbon fiber sticker.

once the rest of the decals go on you won't notice the cabon fiber sides as much. I figured it would be easier to remove the vinyle then to paint over and over those sides take a betten ftom the mud build this if it gets bit up just remove the vinyl an replace it with new
