Hola amigos..

How many you guys own race runner??
And how many times you have been want to drive your car on tarmac?
For sure you can drive it like so, but it´s kind poor looking on tarmac using
rr body on it..

What would you say, if there would be a body on rr that woul look something like this??

Well, now you can..

One of my Finnish mcd friend has mold and hi is doing these bodies for rr model.

I got mine on wednesday..

Only thing i needed was, x4 tires, x4 front bumber and body post for hpi baja 5t, but this guy is doing also bodypost on this model if you want.
But i desided to try my own wings::-D:
And i did my front&rear body post from hpi baja 5t´s.
But let´s cut the carp and i show you some wow factory...
What do you think??

First thing you need to lower your car, like x4 is very low.

Buy complete x4 front bumber.

For sure you can drive with out it, but it´s going to save your body for impacts.

Man that body is BIG:shock:

In these pictures my body windows are liquid masked, so don't worry bout that.

Like you know, in this model are no factory or any other company that would do real car look a like bodies, so i had to do my own bodypost, even though
this guy who is doint these bodies, is doing ready to ride body post too for little extra cost.

But desided to try my own method.

Next im going to do the side bodypost, and i have couple plans on my head.

But what do you guys are thinking of this, unique body for race runner?

It one and only in the world, and im the first owner who is doing someking
story about it:D
I can tell, that these bodies are made same kind plastic, what is using on soda bottle, PETE, but this one is quite much thicker, maybe 3-times the soda bottle.
And price on this one is some where 90€ + shipping..
But guys, think about it, these are not some kind dozen products, each and every one is made by one guy and using one mold that hi made by his own..
So if you are interested, just let me know.:wink:
Because i am going to have fun with my rr/x4 that´s for sure:D

My email is [email protected]

Ok, i got new focus body, and this is because i want to keep that older blue/white body mainly on-road use only, so i bought new body for off road use only.
That does not mean that i will drive it like a maniac somewhere on the sandpit, im going to drive on on the gravel, and maybe on the tarmac too..
Best it would to have bought these surfaces at same time, but i don't have that kind of places on my area.
This kinf of rallycross painting i made for this body :D and of course sponsor decals :lol:

So stay tuned for more ;)
 
Hi voo2doo.
That is true, i should left those lines out on the side and back, but i made those inside the body, so i can not make them go away anymore :/
Price for this body is 90€ + shipping to Wales 30€.
These are unique products, you can not find car body to your rr any where else..
So if you are interested get one, drop me email, or pm..

cheers

Bought x4 rear wing kit to my focus body.
And for sure every one knows that is too narrow for the wide focus body.
12222565.jpg

I made adaptors from this plastic.
12222576.jpg

That measure shows how much the cap is.
That plate i then cutted to half and drilled holes to it and bolted on to the wing.
Not bad even i say it by my self :D
