Love the body, anyone know if it'll fit e-revo?

Finnster 07.25.2009 12:07 AM

Not sure if I like that body.. kinda looks like the batmobile. Rest of the trug is awesome tho no doubt.

BL_RV0 07.25.2009 12:23 AM

Looks good.

Nice truggy mentat.

I also really like those wheels, where do you get the Rulux rims in black?

BL_RV0 07.25.2009 12:24 AM

He probably dyed them.

nitrostarter 07.25.2009 01:14 AM

Buy them white, dye them black....

Mentat: You need to get the 2.0 Shock towers and lower that body some. The lines just look off... I think that will cure it and make it look SWEET!

Anything special i need to do if i go with the 2.0 towers? Or just put them on and go?

nitrostarter 07.25.2009 01:51 AM

Should bolt right on...

JThiessen 07.25.2009 11:47 AM

I'm gonna have to order one of those bodies - like it in black!

Looks like you might need to put some holes in it though....

Looking nice dude! I love the Rulux wheels. I have the standard size. Need to pick up a set of 1/2-up size!

BTW, what do you guys use to dye the wheels?

Most, as well as myself, use Rit brand dye. You can find it at Target, Walmart, CVS, Eckerds, and places similiar. Powder or liquid.

yeah i used 2 packages of the powdered rite dye, and let the water come to a boil then backed it off just a bit under boiling. let the rims soak for 10mins and BAM they look like they came black. I also done a wing, and it too looks good. I love this truggy So much!
