The car is Metallic Black and the pics do not do it justice. It has little bits of flake in it.

Ratzo - I cut the back out high on this one. The rear cut lines on this body were designed to be cut a lot higher than my other Stratus. This body is supposed to be more aerodynamic than the other one.

Looks good, but whats with the single stripe in the center of the wing? Just curious. Looks good though.
 
Very nice ross. I see that you did 2 holes in the rear window. It'll help with cooling as well. Didn't your aero2 body come with spill plates for the wing? Just wondering since a lot of bodies come with those now. It's those things that are usually molded in where the front wheel opening is.
 
Yes it came with the side plates for the wing. The plates are painted but I did not stick them on yet. I actually did not even bolt on the wing yet. The body came with two wings and I painted both of them.
 
Oh, ok good. I used to think those were just for "decoration" and looks, before I started racing, and I never really used them. Now I know better and realized how much they help with the overall stability.
