New Vekta owner!

Thanks Crucial but I am not trying to encase it just keep debris off it and since the guard needs to be cut in order to let the exhaust pass through it I figured I could screw that box to it and it would give the exhaust sufficient room.

Oh I get you?? I think I understand what your trying to do. I never had a problem with debris getting on it. Grass/dirt getting on it didn't hurt anything.

Maybe you can use wire mesh,no heat melt issues etc.

 

[siblues]

Striikar that is the next option if this doesn't work.

I got nice stainless mesh off amazon I used for a mesh mod, that should work good. I'll see if I can find it and post you a link

Thanks Sean.

I am anxiously waiting to hear back from the wrap guy so that he can ship it out to me.He is local so it shouldn't take too long to get here and if there are any issues I have someone else lined up to do it if necessary.I also have some aluminum anodized bits coming in to help add a little color to the rig.

This is what I've been using. Worked well for my mesh mod. They sell other sizes as well.

That's what I bought also but 12"x8". Nice weight and malluable,did mesh mod with it also.

 

[siblues]

Thanks guys I'll look into that and the wrap is on its way so hopefully this weekend it will get applied.

I got the wrap today and I am on the fence.I like parts of it but I can't really tell how it is going to look on the body.I do like that it doesn't look like any other Vekta's I have seen.Here are a few pics

I'm not a blue guy, but it's not Terrible. don't care that they guy has his logo plastered on it, even if it is small.

 

[misterleon]

did he give you the wrap for free? That’s the only reason I would agree to let him put his logo on my wrap. But I guess put it on and If you hate it you can remove it and put a new one on any time.

I think all the guys who do wraps put their logo on them. Maybe they will take it off if you ask them but my Joker wrap had their logo also.

When I was thinking of getting the joker wrap he said he would remove it for me

Yeah like I said if you ask them the will remove it?? I personally don't see anything wrong with it cause I would've put their logo sticker on it anyway. If I was going to go logoless then I would've asked them not to. They would even put my logo on it if I wanted them to.

Yeah but joker designs is known for rc wraps, just signs probably makes mostly coffee mugs and 30% off signs for thrift shops. I see a big difference hahah

Gotcha? He can put a DDM sticker over it.

 

[siblues]

Yeah he makes all kinds of stuff and it will get covered up plus it was less than 50 bucks which is dirt cheap soo that makes up for the trouble of having to cover them up

You gonna put it on? It may look cool with some “sponsor” stickers

 

[siblues]

Yeah I may put a few small ones.I am thinking Hitec Futaba and Vertigo or maybe the Vekta.5 logo.I will pick up a few in the colors I need.
