thanks yep its a gold paint i have .. i sprayed some parts gold and any bolts that are on black where painted gold as well ... if i ever get some bearings ill beable to put the rest of the car together and realy see how it looks .. i didnt do the shocks as i want to go to oil filled .. just wish i could find them in gold

I would leave the shocks black but get gold springs. That would look really nice.

that can be done easy

so i got a chance to paint the springs gold today and played around with the car alittle

ive got the cheap friction shocks with the kit but dont want to put the money out for oil yet so i used some of the Energy Suspension gresse and coated the inside of the shok and reasenbled .. just like a set of oil filled with 40w oil .. nice

built some more of the car and found out the ajustable upper arms dont work ont the front so i had to reinstall the stock pices





just not sure about the bronze rims




ALL SO I DIDNT NOT PAINT OR INSTALL THIS BODY AS IT CAME WITH THE CAR AND IS ON IT UNTILL I CAN GET ANOTHER

But spring color is so you know your spring rates!

its my only set of springs so im good .. if i had to i would just do a colour dot

so i was able to finaly finish the m05 build over the weekend .. lots of spacers to take up the slack .. bearings , motor heat sink , and electronics ... after having to rob the rc10 of its recever after i found out 3 of them where dead

so here it sits race ready .. just need a body

also has anyone done cuts into the battery holder to run the lipo hard case batterys ? .. just dont want to weaken the chassy
