The pics are huge but I wanted to show detail. It came out awesome. The front Green, Green blue, and blue are all marbled. Tear away on the sides to CF, the top color is a custom mixed color called "blue steel". I think it turned out awesome.
This body is also for sale, I was getting it painted and then realized that I needed it to be able to fit an extended chassis, duh.

I was happy, it only cost $35 to do! I'm having him paint up another now, but it's the jconcepts one and instead of the green/aqua/blue up front it's red/grey/blue.

From the first post lol...Said I was getting it painted, not painting it...Sorry if it sounded that way. I only can wish to have these skills.

lol, the jconcepts aint gonna be any better than the crowdpleazer body. I had to modify both front and rear body posts to get it to fit.
My New Body - Ponch - 05-29-2006
You're chitting me. Was it like super hard to do, or somewhat ok/medium difficulty to do?
My New Body - Mr. Tune - 05-29-2006
The rear was easy. Needs to be crossed drilled so the clips go in from the sides. They designed the body so the clips only go in easily from the rear. Well, with the wing, that isn't possible.
On the front, it interferes with the raised hood setup on an extended chassis. In order to even use the posts, you need to cut away the part of the mount which touches the lower section of the body, so the body can site on the raised section of the hood instead. I'll take some pics later to show you what I'm talking about.

That's alright Tune, I got what you're saying. I called up LH and had Nick change the body to a silverado so it'll fit easily.
