dam how do you keep your beadlocks in such good condition, after my first or second run i had chips and a chunk or two out of some of them

Thats easy mate , buy new ones lol

Or use a stanly knife and scrap around the edge takes all the rough off

Oh you changed its colour :( lol

Had some nice thick coats of paint and some different style too.

standard red

blue and white checks

matt black

blue and white

Each time it had undercoat and lacquer.

Plus i gave it a extra coat of fibreglass to make it stronger

I have 1 problem with it,It looks too big for the fg???

Front and back mounts fit side mounts are an inch too short?

Also I have to make a bigger front bumper or lose the lights.

I think its to wide,maybe just the way there are?

I was kust about to say the holes may be off slightly to a fg set up as i was using a clone cage so put the rear mounts where i wanted them.

The front and side should be there as i was using a fg monster front and fg monster guards

Thats what i kept doing hence why it had loads of paint schemes.

I originally got the shell off Normey Hurtmore as he made it for me.

When i got it i thought it could do with being a bit stronger as i knew how i bashed them so it got another coat of fibreglass and everytime it got repainted if it needed it had more fibreglass where it needed.

Has been well bashed but well looked after too
