Finally got pics of a body I painted with Mopar Parts Chrysler Crystal Black Clear Coat spray touch up paint last summer for my E-Revo, plus it still has the Titan 775 I put in last year, the adjustable Traxxas wheelie bar, an Exo-Carbon Wing, P3 suspension parts installed with the sway bars, long travel springs and variable rate pistons, and last year's 3.3 Revo wheels with 3.3 Maxx tires......which, other than not having the black chrome on the rims, is the same combo Traxxas is now using on the Brushless Edition E-Maxx.

I will be adding the bright chromed bumpers off the newest version of the 3.3 Revo before long too.

The Mopar Parts paint will stick even without a clear or some kind of base coat! This is the third body I've painted with the stuff and it's already been rolled a few times on asphault (look at the top of the number board and the sides of the roof, the scratches are just noticable in these pics.



BTW Hypnotiq, that is the St. Charles HobbyTown USA, I work there and too those pics before leaving last Saturday night.
