Doug`s Bug ( monster beetle pro )

[DougStar]

I'm not gonna go as phat as you are with your build but um really not liking the plastic stock steering and linkage. Mind if you can link me to upgrades that are worth it.

Ally engine mounts alloy gear plate ( you have to do the 97 brake caliper at the same time) steel spur

Put a redneck pre filter on it

Put an outerwears on and hose clamp ( tucked the outers under the clamp)

lookin forward to the vid to see how it handles with vipers all round ,

[DougStar]

The other option is to put them on the losi 5b would also look good or chew through them on the 34 badger

Does the rc max rims fit on there? I'm considering getting a pack.

It fits just a matter of how proportional it looks and how it steers

Don't really own the beetle body, have that ford looking body. Quite like the way it looks but im considering doing a bling sort of build with it. Thinking about asking rcmax if they could do green.

Think the rcmax wheels would look dope with this body

I’m sure they could I plan on doing a black anodize on the lightweight genesis centers. Detroit performance said it would be like $35 to do it. Will be going on my vekta

Just emailed em. Probably won't buy them anyway for a few weeks however I would like to know if I have an option. @Doug Does your FG absolutely need that sway bar in the rear? Was thinking about running without it.

 

[DougStar]

Sure its not 100% needed I run sway. Bars on all my cars

Will handle like arse without them. Tell you what, go take the sway bars off all your full size vehicles and see if you like how they act in turns

Here is a pic of the bug with the rcmax wheels it actually looks good
