Default Update. Aluminum body #2

By popular demand I tuned the front of this body. It does look a lot better.
I like all opinions. Thanks

Default latest stuff

Rear panel/racer wing/shock protector. Ties in the rear section
Nerf bars are solid aluminum and are adjustable. Pull 2 inner clips and slide out the bars. They are also great handles.

the nerf bars aren't that great to my liking but some other people like them, but nice addition, and the back is just great. now it's not an uncovered back part.

Is that just the body pieces you made or does that weight include the chase cage? I'm thinking it doesn't include the cage which is still impressive to keep the weight down the almost the same as a lexan body.

Great looking bodies BTW!
