Thanks for all that info, its very helpful.
I may try and make custom shock towers from scratch using stock mid parts as the template and then make the front one taller and also for all three only drill the holes that are actually used for the suspension mounting points, for a cleaner look
I actually remember at the time I decided not to buy the LWB conversion kit there was also a brand new Lazer ZX-R in the store, I contemplated selling my SE at that time to buy the ZX-R but it was so much more expensive than what the Mid cost new.
I understand what you are saying about the carbon chassis, however for the shelf queen it would be cool to have the genuine Kyosho carbon chassis (to get the missed opportunity of that new LWB kit out of my system!) but for the running car I'd stick with the alloy chassis
One thing I am trying to get a feel for is just how expensive or rare particular parts are, such as the front bumber that is common between the mid and Lazer, what is a reasonable price for that?
