OK, so now I discover that FG has 3 clear Beetle bodies! Any one know which aligns best with th 4WD conversion chassis? - 6202 Monster Beetle - 6202/01 Beetle Pro - 58150 Offroad Beetle 4WD Thanks

Thanks! Any one know if this part should be ordered as well? "Body Undertray for FG VW Beetle models. FG Part # 06203"
