no forward cab? lol

in my opinion it doesn't need the spoiler on the roof, but if you were going that way make it carry on at the back of the body.

the side pods could probably be lower too.

but i like

Not quite! It's quite close but we tried the Zen shell on the other day and the front isnt wiiide n chunky enough. We could mod it to fit but I think we will be going ahead with a design a bit like the one above

Cheers for the input guys ... always nice to have opinions to listen to, good or bad I like em all ....

Like I said, nothing has been made yet, just me playing around on paintpot ....

Despite how it looks, the main part of the body is pretty much the same dimensions as the stock Cougar shell, it's just smoooooothed off a bit, so speedo fitment etc shouldn't be a problem.

The roof line is quite a bit lower than stock for a bit more meaness, and it will also fit the stock undertray so ya won't need to buy a new one

Price will likely be £15.00, the same as our X6 shell ....

Keep the opinions coming tho .....

Good work as per usual Si!
Not my kind of thing IMO, as I am not really into the 'slammed' look as of present, as I prefer a more classic curvy body (ala B4 etc).
Top work all the same.

I'd like to see a little more space for a speed passions esc with fan. The stock body is a little to close for my taste. maybe try a seperate gear cover conversion also. That being said I love the shape
