The green chassis screws aren't helping the situation either. Anyone know where to get black or silver chassis screws?klavy69 wrote:Hey, thanx for reminding me...HALLOWEEN is just around the corner

Re: Orangemazda's RC10T project ~ sneek peek
This will probably sound strange, but I kind of like the green screws on the orange chassis.
Something clever goes here...

Hi,
Here you go,
I believe 8-32 screws are 100 degrees phillips.

I've used their black screws many times, they are good quality.

You could just polish the factory screw heads. Chuck them up in a drill with some sand paper.

I bought 50 of the black screws for various projects. I like them much better! I'll most likely shorten one down for the nose piece center screw too.

Re: Orangemazda's RC10T project ~ sneek peek
Looks better with black shock towers and black screws. Things always look best when the number of colors are limited.

Re: Orangemazda's RC10T project ~ sneek peek
Got my shocks all polished up and installed. Now I need to figure out exactly what I want to do for wheels and tires.

Re: Orangemazda's RC10T project ~ sneek peek
Anyone know where I might find some stock rear RC10T tires. NIP or very nice shape?

Re: Orangemazda's RC10T project ~ sneek peek
Those wheels are pretty sweet but unfortunately I currently have 1/4" universals on there and those wheels are 3/16". I may have to rethink my axle choice.
