                    That is looking really good. I see you changed out the Axial rims. I have an Axial Rubicon with the same rims is you have in the first picture. What are these newer rims you are using, they look way more scale. Also did you build the trailer, it looks great.

                      Wheels are Motorworx 1.9 beadlocks. They are $95 a set. I didn't build the trailer, hats of to Todd Cormier, great work.

                          I can pull mine off if you want to do them. I still need to do the silver on them too. I also could use a few of the # 121's. The ones I have are transparent background and I need a white background.

                            I would have to mess around with it and not sure at moment I have the time.
                            I could certainly do it just not sure when I could get to it or how much youd want to spend.
                            Email me and we can chat about it.

                            I also thought of a way you can make the tanks and they could be chrome.
                            I have some 1-2mm pvc that could be cut to size after chrome vinyl is applied then you would need bend and glue the pieces together to form the shape.
                            Once that is done you could apply some fiberglass to the back of them if you wanted something else rigid like clay and then they would be strong and not flex.....
                            Make a pattern out of paper and then I can use that to generate the pieces.
                            Or some thin plywood would also work very nicely and be easily glued together and strong.
