**AKbash57** · 06-13-2011 12:29 AM

Back in the day, I used to save shower caps from hotel stays and stretch them over the entire chassis. I would put a couple of strips of electrical tape on the bottom and it worked pretty well. You just have to monitor the temps because there is no airflow. Usually I had no problems, because the only time I did it was in the winter and the ambient air temp. kept things in check for the most part.

Outerwears do a cover which is somewhat water resistant and breathable, though some imagination with an old milk carton or pop bottle can craft something quite workable too.

Did some compagny did a case like that fot the EMBE?

On a stampede

**Vinyard46** · 01-14-2012 08:05 PM

What I did to my slash was get a jc concepts Undertray cut the sides off then put an outerwears shroud over its not really water proof but it is splash resistant.

No other option than the Jconcept?

I did a similar thing with my slash. I used a thin plastic "Beware of Dog" sign from the local hardawre store, trimed and velcored it to the chasis (both in the front and on the back) . Then I taped and glued some schreen mesh to span the distance from the front plastic shield to the back shield. I was more concerned about debri than water, but I think it provides more protection from water than just the overscreen mesh. I would watch the temps with the over trays, people have reported no problems, but your results can be diferent.

**snowmaxx 3905** · 02-24-2012 10:00 PM

When i drive my maxx with my friend speedpede09 and his summit my maxx always is full of water, plants or snow but nothing like that yet.

**stickychinsac** · 02-25-2012 04:39 AM

Yeah I could really go for an outerwears style filter on my truck

**bentrocker** · 02-25-2012 06:10 AM

Very nice cover. Puts my lady socks all to shame.

**REVORACER24** · 02-25-2012 05:37 PM

You could try a smaller body for a different truck then modify it to fit? Hope that helps.

**SkidMan** · 02-27-2012 06:25 PM

Item received!!!

**Captain_Rusty** · 02-28-2012 08:13 AM

What's the website that came off of? Or a link to that product would also be handy

**SkidMan** · 02-28-2012 11:49 AM

Talk to Bruno from ''Creation Jade''

**SkidMan** · 03-03-2012 01:34 PM

Really great product!

**87 GN** · 03-03-2012 01:48 PM

.................

**Captain_Rusty** · 03-03-2012 03:39 PM

Any temp issues with that on? I'm assuming the ambient temp you were in would help out but more so thinking for being able to run in rain

**SkidMan** · 03-03-2012 04:04 PM

Agreed!!I think that this cover is more for winter bashing on day below 0 degree celcius!!

**SkidMan** · 03-04-2012 04:00 PM

Three run today (on 4s) a no motor or esc temp trouble!!!I really like my shroud!

**stickychinsac** · 03-05-2012 09:59 PM

Looks really nice. If it wouldn't be too much trouble could you post link to the product? I'm a fail on site navigation.

Send a email on the website!!

**stickychinsac** · 04-08-2012 04:04 AM

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...thanks guy

**msquad** · 07-18-2012 11:04 AM

So to be able to buy one of these, you have to go to the website and send an email? There is no online store that sells these?

**Captain_Rusty** · 07-18-2012 02:31 PM

The websites in French so unless you speak the language you're best to just send an email.

**Complexd** · 02-19-2013 12:00 AM

Do you know if this guy still makes these? I still cannot find a Over tray, and just blew up my ESC because of water damage.

**Complexd** · 02-19-2013 12:13 AM

all the lexan bodies seem to work for the T/E maxx and Revo, so that OuterWear overtray should work as well right?

**50togo** · 02-19-2013 12:35 AM

Different part numbers for revo and maxx

**Complexd** · 02-19-2013 12:41 AM

I am not sure if i am blind, but i dont see any different part numbers on the link you sent me, and then i checked the products for E maxx, and all they have is shocks. This should work fine.

**MITCH316** · 02-19-2013 04:30 PM

Skidman...great to see the shroud in action. Thanks!

**GaiginRC** · 02-21-2013 08:03 PM

We got blasted with snow today in Kansas and of course everything was shutdown. Took the truck out bashing and had a blast. After seeing how packed the snow was inside the chassis I realized it's time for a shroud.
