Turned out alright. Some darker/lighter areas bc it was a little windy.....but running out of warm days and didn't want to wait till next year. 🤷‍♂️

Kept it simple with 1 color and minimal stickers. This goes on my infraction mega 4s. Took it out for a spin tonight and it was a blast. Def different feel than the stock truck body. Looks cooler too. 😁

Love the color smilin' dude! Isn't it crazy that a different body can make it feel so different. Really like the look. 😍

Looks great its a very nice green
 
that thing is beautiful! way better than when i used similar colors, how did you get it to look so dang good!!
Thanks. O, it def could be better.

I like it cuz u learn something new/what not to do every time u paint a body. This is my 6th body I've painted (all rattle can). I've still got my Felony Vette body to paint, another Slash body my wife got at Goodwill for $1.50 (brand new, still in the packaging), a General Lee body (need to get a car to fit it), and this winter I'll be doing my 1st dye job when I finally assemble my Axial Ryft kit. :banana: 😁 🤗 😁✌️
