    Clear bodies are back in stock!

    Iv been long awaiting the clear bodies to come back, as my old slipstream had about 3 pounds of shoo-glu holding to together. Well, it came in yesterday and I finished putting the cage on it this morning. I didnt think it would turn out this bright, it almost glows in the dark!

    So you can paint it the colors you desire for one off creation that nobody has. :-)

    I have not painted Lexan in about 20 years. Is it still the same pain in the tush to prep and mask off?

    Awesome, I need to find some, I know exactly what that is, but don't know where to find it, I don't want to order $2 worth online.

    I got mine on ebay. Was listed as 3d carbon fiber decal. There was a million hits, all selling the same stuff. Its actually pretty durable, the stuff on my phone looks new after 3 months.
    It will be on the roof of my next body, we will see how it holds up to road rash.
