SG's new ride, a gift from yours truly

Well, I was sending a package to sg soon after his birthday, so I thought I'd try to hook him up with a little birthday gift. I tried to find some good green paint, but when none could be found, I opted on an equally-pimping color for this ladies man - Metallic Black. I then found an excellent body, a lowered black Porsche, and found some chrome rims that set off the paint nicely. All in all, I was very satisfied, because I've been wanting to try out this paint forever. I liked the paint so much, I painted the PCB cover to match. Anyway, here are some pics:

Nice! I pretty much dismissed that prehistoric ZZ shell because it rode so damn high, but that's looking pretty good.

Yeah, my first ZZ was actually a silver Porsche, and I soon found out with it that if you cut at just the right places, you can lower it to a good-looking level, aswell as being hardly detectable from the outside.

And sorry I haven't been around much, but I just haven't been doing all THAT much RC work lately, with my real 1:1 pimpin ride, school, and the applying for a part time position at the local ISP.

Happy birthday sg!!!!

I like the car and the work you put into it. It looks shit-hot. I think there may be too much glare with the photo though. It blings so damn much, you might need to use less light to get a real smooth picture.

My b-days in Jul. Just thought I would remind you.
