So been watching a ton of vids, and my truck has not even seen dirt and I want to build a class 1 truck ! I bought the KM class 1 cage / body kit. I Question, the panels are black and i'm thinking about painting a different color, is this a waste of time ? Do the bodies get trashed quickly ?

If ur talking about this cage, https://www.kingmotorrc.com/roll-ca...-1-roll-cage-fits-hpi-baja-5b-5t-rovan-buggy/
Yes they are clear, also yes the body's do get abused but they last pretty long so I think it'd worth it to make it look great! Also btw, great choice if that's it!
And I totally get u, it's Soo temping to just buy awsome upgrades and stuff, most of the time I've gotten sucked in but there is a load of deals I passed up due to my engine build when I really really wanted them.
 
You would be better of getting into heroin. Its cheaper and people think higher of you. Your place on the social scale just slid below ground level my friend and you got yourself an unhealthy obsession/compulsive buying disorder. Congratulations. Expect your wife to talk about leaving or suddenly getting many new friends and your children refuse to drive around in public with you, with or without your truck. That bus ran the first time you took it out.

That's not the kit but the one I bought is very similar :

I also found and bought a Class 1 vinyl decal kit that looks like it will work :

I think the decal kit will actually look really sweet with the black body. I also have a ton of decals from the Rovan RTR kit, might steal a few of those.

Even as the panels get trashed later on in it's life it's still going to look bad ass with just the cage . Same reasons I went with the Chase cage and the Grafil body . Still looks cool with out the body on it . Later down the road mine may end up getting carbon fiber panels as replacements for the Grafil body.

Yeah I think that one comes black. That wrap kit looks sick!
