Question.... The pics in that listing shows a fully white body but the pics of the painted body have clear windows. How does that work?

 

[atom3624]

They do make a fibreglass body as well, but if you look at the pictures you'll see clear 'windows', and they do mention '2 mm lexan' if I remember correctly.
I presume the 'white' is the protective film most good body moulders cover bodies with - this is to avoid 'overspray' when the body's being painted.
It is generally only removed once the painting is completed - unless there's a particularly fancy body paint in progress - like I had done on my FG MT - the Ford phrasing was painted over the top ... I wasn't warned nor given the option.
Outlaw Graphics in UK wouldn't have painted it that way, but it's still holding up, amazingly!

Interesting. Mine comes with a clear film. Maybe a different manufacturer.

It was a good question and probably better asking the seller directly.

I was gonna message seller but when myrcbud said he had one I figured I'd ask here instead of having to translate a message. Thanks for the reply, makes plenty of sense. Even though I don't have a 535 yet I may just have to pick up this body for when I do! lol

These things cost a lot of money, so always best to ask questions first rather than regret later!
Hope the project comes together - should look great.
