x2c bling?

[cigbunt]

does any one know any UK shops i can get the alloy upgrades for the x2c...?

i know mk racing used to have the full range but they have seemed to of disappeared..

tc models is another shop but not in uk $20+ shipping doesnt make it worth the order...

[MrMagoo]

TBH I ordered from TC models... quick delivery and when I ordered a complete set of ally bling, a few kevlar diff gears, vented slipper plates, body shells and some general spares I saved way more than the $20 dollars for shipping. All arrived in about 8 days too.

I'm all for supporting UK shops, but in this case only TC had everything I needed at a good price.

HAd some bits from TC due to the same reasons, but i always seem to get stung with the stupid Parcelforce £13.50 handling fee. I dont mind paying the VAT but this fee is ridiculous !

that seems a bit naughty, as Ansmann have the same parts

I think SMD are getting there stuff from a german company called Abisma, who are distributing team C stuff.

Not really Lrp and Nosram have produced the same stuff for years in different colours.

I thought it was a bit naughty too, would of thought Ansmann had some sort of deal in place to stop them selling in Europe directly.

but that was purely so that top drivers could run the same electronics and not conflict with their primary sponsor. ie Horizon/Losi imported LRP, so CML/associated drivers ran Nosram. Still the same speedo from the same parent company.

Unless the deal (if there is/was one) has come to an end, like with TQ Racing... Team C USA has been "out" for a while and Team C Europe was announced January 6th.

I'm not sure that Ansmann actually sell those parts? I might be wrong but I have never heard of a part number for them.
