Vektor Racing Intercept shell for DEX410
 
1 Attachment(s)
Well, I've been tinkering with some CAD software and thought I'd design a shell for the 'rango.

What do you guys reckon?

I've got prices for making the actual vacuum formed shells but still trying to sort out the mould. Looking into getting it made at the Uni on the cheap :D

not too bad

:thumbsup::thumbsup:

I would have me on of those, I was looking at the FS2 shell Friday night to put on my Durango.

This looks like a mix of the FS2 and Rango!

Not a fan tbh, to square! make it nice and smooth and rounded off

matt, are you just collecting shells now?

craigosh 01-10-2011 09:28 PM

Yeah deffo fs2 influence. Quite like that shell so thought take that as a cue.
Just gone for something with more space under and bigger cooling space.

Its not a bad shell the Gainabull, but I find it a little awkward looking and little to soft and fat. Very dependent on paint job!!

I prefer shells a bit more angular and aggressive.

Agreed. Keep it sharp and aggressive!

Don't change it. Mean and aggressive, it looks killer.

I'll take 3

GRIFF55 03-10-2011 09:21 PM

It will be nice to see a finished one of these painted up.
Quite like it:thumbsup:

craigosh 03-10-2011 10:50 PM

Well getting the mould made is proving most difficult thing at the mo but trying a few contacts

MrMagoo 04-10-2011 09:47 PM

Love it! If you can get them made up I'll take a couple...

TDMAK 05-10-2011 02:17 PM

If you make it, you got an order from me.

Carlos69 06-10-2011 01:35 AM

Me rikey :drool:

I'd have one :thumbsup:

eyeayen 06-10-2011 09:51 AM

I think it looks cool ! Hope you can get them made, where's the problem coming from with the mould ? It looks like you have a decent computer file to supply them ?

Fatal1ty 06-10-2011 10:28 AM

first think: stealth bomber! :thumbsup: looks great! But I dont drive a durango... I'm sorry :)

ASR 06-10-2011 03:40 PM

looks great mate I'd order one!

craigosh 06-10-2011 04:59 PM

Yeah getting the mould made is proving difficult, cant really afford to get it machined from ali or something. Most people I've spoken to seem to mould it all by hand but im no good at that sort of thing :)

Still trying to get a contact at the uni to see if can use their rapid prototype machines to get a good original from.

Not giving up just yet ;)

IceMike 06-10-2011 05:09 PM

You dont need ali to make the mould. u could use mdf, or plastic.

wouldnt use wood in its oridinal form as it may disform during the moulding process.

count me in if you can form these!
