What front arms are those, and are they direct swaps for the stock nylon arms?

I think you're right, Paul...it's not color distortion because the gold of the shocks doesn't match the chassis. I have some of those shocks, Duratrax (DuraLeaks). :mrgreen: The Kyosho gold color is like champagne; the Duratrax gold is like beer.

Still, that's a very nice Gold Optima there, saga101...looks like my Zebra Optima chassis.
