It's hip to be square! :cool:

We have been working on this for a good few months and let me tell you the X5 squared really is a big improvement over the old car especially in its strength and reliability.

And all at the same price as the old car, can't go wrong really :)

Everything Ellis said. I never hear anyone say anything bad about the handling of the X5 and rightly so. These improvements really make a lot of difference to quality and reliability.

orderd mine,:cool:

trekkker

just emailed daryl about my kit

I like the "pro-proto" covers! makes the car look really cool.

gonna have to wait till pay day before i can order my higher power upgrade though :(

i like the fact there white....coz they can go in the pink die with the bulkhead, turnbuckles ends, drive shaft yoks, wheels and dust covers

GAY !!!!!!!!:D :D :D :p ;)

not sure the pink would really go with my paint scheme but the dye sounds like a good idea!

fully custom x5 any body?

shut up it will be lush mt wragg

I swear Chazz had you in mind when he thought of these. I need to learn how to dye blue now???

Dyeing is easy - just don't use anything that will ever be needed for cooking in again, I have found it can even dye the metal of Pans & Spoons. These parts were done with the ability of dyeing as some plastics don't take as well - these will, in white they look great! I wanted to dye red, but now I am not so sure - white looks very fresh somehow.

The overall quality is much better, little things have been taken care of such as perfecting the countersinking (under the rear shock tower specifically) and then there are the significant changes as shown on the announcement. The material does seem heaps better too. There really is no reason not to change over to Squared, we're impressed anyway.

there was a link on the random talk section about dye's. you just add the poweder dye to an old saucepan, add soem salt bring to the boil dump your bits in and 15mins later there customtastik

You buy dye and salt. Then simply run in in the washing machine... it's kinda expensive so it's wise to dye a lot at the same time.

Put the small parts in a net if they are so small they might get into those holes...

You could dye clothes at the same time of course... imagine it Millzy, ALL your white Ts could be pink... (and all of your girlfriend's white lingerie of course ;) )

The saucing pan trick could perhaps provide a darker shade of course...

Ah dude ive done that my White Mtroinks was pinked ages ago
