That looks awesome! Don't anodize it, just polish it! Nice and shiny.

yes they sit on the cell divider/strengthening ridge thingys and theres just enough room under the lipos for the required extra lead
he bought that b4 in good condition hardly used off of a good friend for £20 and the ali was free from his brother lewis the owner of team xtreme/pred , bargain just owes £20 and a few evenings i will have to get one of these mill things there only cheap about £200 looks like fun
