lexan body

here's the lexan body from the Photo Competition 2 years ago .
Well I finally finished it.
It's not too flashy, but a LOT faster on the track.
As everyone knows by now, there's a huge difference in performance with lexan shells.
My Z is especially lighter since I'm living life on the edge with no bumper. That will come later.
It's ready for MZR decals. hint, hint.

yup, bad pic.

I'm using 3M Dual Locks.
Two on the battery clips and one under the hood.
It holds much better than Velcro and it also allows perfect alignment every time.
An important feature for me is that the mounts don't show like the conventional post-n-pin setup.

That 3M dual lock is some killer stuff.

Another nice body Ken.
