So since I made the winglets for the front splitter I've been thinking of making some for the rear.and I've been drawing out some ideas on a new wing..I got some 4mm plexiglass and I want to make something that attaches to the sides of my wing now and follow it over the rear wheels leading into the side skirts .I'll have to draw it out nice and post a pic of what it's going to look like then when it's all cut out and trimmed and smoothed out nice I'll CF wrap it ..stay tuned boyz ..I got visions.😆🤟let's make them reality..👍
 
Quick update on a issue I found yesterday..noticed my front right hinge pin to lower control arm was sticking out . Thanks to @Tex Koder I know what I'm missing. I have to get the vendetta sway bar bracket that holds the hinges in place.just a reminder that if you remove the original big rock bumpers off and you don't plan to use them again then know that those bumpers are what keeps the lower control arm pins from sliding out.later I'll take a pic of the front bumper and rear to show you guys what I'm talking about. Pics below is the sway bar bracket that I need to order tonight and a pic of the pin thats out..good thing I noticed this crap before I took it out and found out the hard way if it slid all the way out.id probably loose my wheel and crash it .

I already a ways back if sway bars were needed for speed passes and I was told no .so I'm not going to add sway bars but I need the brackets .
 
Idea for you. Since you had American flags on IIRC, you could get a wrap or epoxy the hood with a flag! Or even the bed.


Edit:
I see you had two on.
Yeah I still plan to throw the flags on when I street bash but for speed runs I won't be able to..I did think of painting double flags on the original body .🇺🇲🇵🇹 U.S.A and PORTUGAL split both flags down the middle but then I kinda want a different idea..I'm not sure yet ..we shall see.thank you for the idea..🤟😁
 
I got the sway bar mounting set a few days ago and like I mentioned I won't be using the sway bars due to not really needing them and my lower control arms do not support them due to not having the threaded holes for the sway bar screws to go through.but the mounts is what I needed because the pins that go through the lower control arms were sliding out due to not having the mounts in place..thought I had misplaced them but I never had them .when I ordered the vendetta front bumper and guards and rear diffusers it wasn't part of the package.anyways today I installed them on and they fit like a glove .perfect.no more sliding pins😁.now I can take it for a spin without worrying about my lower control arm coming off lol. I also bought some cool red racing wheels by NHX .I'll be using them just to do some street bash 😁🤟

Cool wheels. Excited to see a vid.
 
Cool wheels. Excited to see a vid.
I shall very soon .I'm ordering a go pro this week from eBay .I'm bidding on a few now .bids end in a few days..I have no clue about them but I'm bidding on a go pro 8 and a 7 4k .but neither one come with batteries or a head strap..I did find a different brand that's not GoPro that is 4k with everything I need for 40 buks .if I don't win the bids on them gopros I'll just buy that other action camera..we shall see
 
So finally getting around to making travel limiters for the front to keep the splitter from nose slaps.found some type of tubing at Lowes in the refrigerator Dept and it's very hard material but yet has a soft touch to it.alot stronger than what most would use like aquarium pump tubing or nitro tubing.cool thing about this tubing is the vivid red color .. matches my color scheme.😁👍

Anyone doing this reamember that when you use a pair of vice grips use a peice of doubled up paper towel around the shaft then clamp .so you don't scratch the shaft.👍
 
Ok so looks like I'll need M3 washers for the bulk head button head screws.
It says 3x20 right in the description ..

Yeah duh I had to actually think for a sec .🤣🤣🤣 I didn't take my smart pills today..lol
Found a good deal I think ..20 for 7 bizzzucks free shipping 👍
Oh and I have been looking for a go pro but all the ones I have bidd on I lost at the very last minute.i didn't want to buy a new one because holy fkers they are expensive and I just want to be able to record a vid so I can show you guys when I do runs so I said fk it and got a action camera but it's not a go pro but looks like one.reviews were 50 / 50 some said it sucked and others love it so I got it anyways..it was cheap enough .payed under 40 for it and comes with batteries and and head straps and a tons of mounting crap 🤣 let's see if it works . probably made in China but then again what isn't ..hey our Arrmas are made in China to and we love them right
Not a actual go pro but it's bran new .so we shall see how it performs👍

Red aluminum alloy anodized counter head bolt gaskets

IMG_20230523_214605050.jpg

Led lighting system.16 led lights . rediculous amount of options .from day time running lights to front high and low beams turn signals .strobe light .front and rear fog lights which change color by blue tooth .also Xtra cable for nite glow.also any color I wish to choose.Red😁
My fake cheep ass go pro came in . action cam .now I just need to figure how to use some of the options it offers.ill post a vid, hopefully I'll get a nice one from this cheap action camera
Also bought a gt hard shell cover that I modified a little.still working the rear extension part to it.going to install red led lights inside the air ports.😁 I love lights .I mostly use this rig at for that reason.
Stay tuned for more crazy ideas 😉 soon I'ma drop that MM2 in this with the castle motor and let him rip the pavement 🤣

Cool. Been a while since you updated. How’re the other bodies coming?
