Re: Pictures of my samurai build
This is looking like it's going to be one seriously nice looking truck. I can't wait to see what she looks like finished.
There's three ways of doing things:
The right way,
The wrong way
And my way, which is like the wrong way but faster.

Thanks for comments
just need to find some wheel arches. just not liking the price tag on them
No i was going to cut them out like rear but there was only two small holes, so i cut the holders for the wheel arches off and just filled them ,dan_2k_uk wrote:Nice work.

Re: Pictures of my samurai build
For the rears you could just use some sort of plastic/rubber strips like my truck but you might struggle to get the fronts looking the same.
Maybe you could use some little angled brackets to fit a small strip at the same kind of height as the rear and attach a plastic strip to that?
Thats the cheap way of doing it anyway
