The chrome looks very nice. Great quality. These should be available in Black and Chrome shown here.

Here are a few photos of the chassis before I mounted it.

This is the mount for a spare tire. We hope to have this out soon. Then we can make this a full Desert Racer.

The body mounted just fine. In order for it to fit, you have to cut out the back of the body. I chose to cut the windows out as well. Looks really nice.

Here is a little abuse video. I stood on the chassis from the top side and flipped it over and stood on it from the other side and no issue at all.

Seems like the CG goes up quite a bit. Not for racing

Great for bashing. Not the best for racing. But each there own. The cage holds up perfect.
