The crowd pleazer won't work good with an extended chassis. Due to the shape of the hood (middle section is raised up), they incoporated flat spots and indents so the body posts line up correctly. Works great with stock length, looks like crap with an extended chassis.
I ran it all rigged up for a few weeks and then picked up a jconcepts body. It has similar issues, but I only needed to modify the body posts a little in the front and had to cross drill the rear because they shaped the body in a way that putting the clips on in the back is tough if you have a low mounted wing.
For the cleanest look, I'd prolly use the traxxas body. They make an extended version so it fits the new chassis properly.
