   The wheels and tires are just on there for now. I will change it to something else soon. Most likely a set of Swamp Dawgs with RPM Torkerz (if I can find a hobby shop to order for me locally). And I will also be doing some weathering on the body when I have time.

by weathering.. surely you mean running it out in the mud right? :rofl: looks good tho... yellow rims look a little odd tho....should be cool if you can swap em out, especially if the new rims are black or olive drab....

Just added some weathering, I am not sure if it looks natural. It was very hard to start it since it felt weird purposely making the body look dirty. But once I started...it was quite fun :rofl: Let me know what you guys think.    |

not bad.... maybe some darker stuff too? also you really need some on the glass, if you can see where they've used windscreen wipers to clear off the mud all the better....windscreen wipers would be a good addition too if it doesnt come with them...

That a good idea! I am going to experiment with this What color do you suggest? I think I am going to go pick up some red brown for rust, and maybe some flat brown for mud.

Thanks! I ran it through a pack today, it was so fun to drive. Since it has crappy handling, it wasn't as smooth driving as my Dark Impact. The wheelies were great, but I couldn't keep them up for some reason
