this was supposed to be a runner (since i do lots of building and next to nil running these days), but perhaps I'll look at it on the coffee table for a week or so first..

Nice, I like how the 3Racing Lazer ZX-5 shocks complement the body/paint-job. And are those Schumacher spike tires on the front?

What's the story on the rear shock tower? Is it fabricated or a cut-down stock tower?

Many thanks for the comments, the shocks dictated the colour scheme !

Not sure on the rear top mount, it came to me on a LWB custom special originally but that build received carbon fibre items instead

Actually it looks like a pearlescent grey and decals have been applied.
