Well i guess this is my entrance into the bit scene. Ive been hanging around bits for the past month or so but havent really ventured outside of rs mods until just now. I have to say the tab lowering for me was a bitch alot of trial and error but it was my first time. I have to say im pretty pleased with the way it turned out. I have a nice big can of a dark blue paint laying around so i think if i get the time ill attempt to paint this sucker. Im also thinking about a dual cell from a zzmt under the board sometime soon.

That wheel mod looks sharp on there.

Great start. :-o

I feel ya on the pics. I'm not all that great with the ones I take sometimes, but I've been getting better. Practice doesn't make perfection, but it sure the hell helps out a lot. :lol:

Looking like the start of something nice. Not bad at all I must say. 8-)

I agree, great start. The lowered body looks nice, so do the wheels.
Next stop, the paint shop.

Lowering is the key to almost any decent looking bit or zip. Some shells allow you to do it easier than others, and sometimes it requires minor carving of wheel wells to retain functionality.

... and sometimes it requires major carving to chassis, body, fingers, etc., but dammit, its gotta look good, or it just aint as much fun. :lol:
