Also got the gunmetal motor plate installed, and got the spur gear from brushless finally. Handles way different with the sway bars

Thanks. I was going to add this decal I took from my first attempt but I felt it looked too busy so I kept it relatively simple

Very nice, yeah I saw the sway bars. She's ready for some track time now.

Shes looking really good. Where did you end up putting the ESC?

I thought I took pics of the first paint job I attempted... I did it like it showed on the box BUT not only did I use the wrong kind of paint (it flaked off if you looked at it wrong), but I painted the outside of the body...WITH the plastic covering still on it.. it was a mess and it was peeling and flaking all over the place. This time I hand painted the driver and sprayed the rest ..al paint on the inside

ESC ... cut a hole in the top plate where the esc fan was supposed to go and put some spacers underneath since the chassis is a trapezoid. Weird fit but it's in there and I love it.

Indeed. I was not happy at all with how it came out at first. I was so anxious to get to spraying I forgot to research how to do it first.
