Still gotta drill the holes, cut out the back for the engine, and get body clip tethers but this one came out alot nicer than my silverado body! Jeep wrangler Rubicon :-) undecided on if i wanna put lights in this one or not.

Did you paint the winch or is that all decals?
Looks good though!

They are stickers that came with the body.

Thanks for the comments guys! What do you guys think, should i put the light bar up top? Or put working headlights in it? Or leave it as is.

Here she is trimmed up and mounted and ready to get dirty :-) now since this body is a hpi body and meant for the savage, does anybody know of any bumper mounts that extend out further? With the stock mounts the bumper sits behind the body because it has the winch on the front. I tried the longer rear ones on the front but it doesn't fit right or look right. I might have to try and make something myself. But for now I'm not gonna put the bumper on.

As you may know from my new wheel post I had got some new wheels. Well, somehow I spun 2 of the hubs on the wheels, haha. So i upgraded! Got ofna 17mm hub adapters, and some ofna MT 3 splits in chrome. The ofset is insane and really widened the stance it makes it handle better. No more coming up on 2 wheels and doesn't roll over! Pictures aren't the greatest. It was getting dark and I took them on my phone.

I dont mind the look of the wheels (wouldnt be my first choice though), but would they be as strong as some of the others. They dont look like they have much to them.
