Yeah some places give that option but unfortunately he does not do that yet. They would anodize the darker color first and then seal and strip the anodizing back off on the opposite color area and then dip it for the lighter color thus producing the two tone effect. That is how they did my R&B Lightning, applied the stripper for the marble effect and then dipped it in Red.

I have 1 more truck I am going to anodize and I want it to have Marble again so I either have to try and contact that previous company or find a new one. The last information I had on that company who did my R&B Lightning was the guy who helped me do it burnt his bridges there so I hope they will take more business from RC people. I have not yet contacted them about it.

I already have the colors I want for the next truck and it won't be Gold for sure. Yellow is about as close to a light color as I can get. I am a fan of dark colors but I knew Yellow would go sweet with Black for my taste. The next one will be the best yet if I can get the colors I want. Might just go solid and try some two tone instead of marble, the two tone would look killer on the wheels for sure. I will have to ponder over that when the time comes, maybe this coming winter I will do that one. I have 3 more after this one to build. I have a Thunder I want to make into a Gasser when the HPI 1/8 scale Gas motors come out. Going to send it off and have a custom motor mount made if it will actually fit. Just gotta wait and see after those engines come out. Also will have to figure up a gas tank, hopefully the Savage one they produce for their Savage gasser will fit with some modification.

Hopes and dreams in the back of my head.....
