Guys what is the general opinion on the parts on eBay?

Thanks in advance

Are you talking about the Dhawk parts? Fit on mine were not terrible. Metal is soft. If it’s going on a show car it’s fine. You won’t add much durability with aluminum parts and they do scratch up pretty quickly so for a runner I would advise against them.

Makes em faster, specially in red. Seriously you need to be careful if it's a runner. Nylon parts flex but alloy is much stiffer so stresses get passed on to the next bit in line. If you change the steering knuckle then on impact the flex can only happen in the arm and mount. If you fit the arm as well then the mount takes the hit. If you fit an alloy mount too then the chassis bends... Best left alone unless you want a pretty shelf queen.

Those are the ones. I figured as much. I plan on making one a shelf queen and the gold anodized parts would look great with the gold pan.

Thanks guys.

Any pictures of the final shelf queen?
