Dose ant one sell alumimun paets for the nitro rustler?
If so are the going to cost a arm and a leg?
 
My experience wit aluminium is that it bends....once....and then you either bend it back(weakening the metal) or live with the forms it takes.

Also spendy.

Now do I use aluminium? ...yes I have $1200 worth of it on my caged revo....

But after that newbie experience I have switched to using it where it makes sense......skid plates .... servo covers and the like....stuff that will get a good beating....and I leave the rest stock....the parts are cheaper to replace and I dont feel so bad when they go.

forget the aluminum and invest in some hooked on phonics. I know your from Canada (Aye?) but I'm pretty sure a majority of the people there speak english.

My take on aluminum parts are they are pretty, but are somewhat impractical (Except Skids, servo covers, tank covers stuff like that). Aluminum doesn't absorb the brunt like plastic does and instead of breaking a arm, you do alot more damage deeper in. Look into Rpm stuff. can't beat the no questions asked lifetime warranty.
 
Thanks guys.
ALL your info was VERY helpful.



Thanks again.
