Pretty is in the eye of the beholder and I can tell you no matter how ugly we think they get others will be like WOW!!

I put the fg beetle body on the HPI Baja last night (set it on top). It looks like it *could* be possible it may look half way cool on the Baja.

What part do I need to buy to use the front pre drilled holes in the monster beetle body. My firehammer mt front mounts are further forward and further apart than this. http://www.davesmotors.com/store/product2351.html
I would rather buy some fg parts to make new mounts like I did in the rear then to drill 2 more holes in my $130 new body.

Also, how do i paint it white with black racing stripes, like this beetle....

Paint the white on the inside and the black stripes on the outside?

Paint both on the inside. Mask up and spray the black first, then pull off your masking and spray white all over (except windows)

Will look cool.

Okay, I looked again, if the body was about 1 inch longer, I would say yeah.

Sorry for the poor pics below:

Your right - Too small.
Do you find your onroad tires wear more with all that toe on the rears?
