xxx cr body shells?

[styleone]

Hi guys,

Can anybody tell me which other body shells fit the xxx-cr please,
Does the xx4 shell fit?

Any info is much appreciated as I'm looking for something a little different.

Thanks guys

Any from the XXX 2WD buggys...

XXX, XXX BK2 or, obviously the XXX-CR... Jconcepts also do a shell..

And no, the XX4 shell will not fit the XXX-CR

Hope that helps

I PREFERE THE J CONCEPTS SHELL MYSELF AS THERE IS A LITTLE MORE ROOM FOR YOUR ESC AND ELECTRICS.

Thanks Tom, I've seen jconcepts one,looks cool,I'll have a look at the other suggestions

Cheers for posting

Good call dave, more room is always good mate

[Tom3012]

No worries...

Im not a fan of the Jconcepts shell personally, if you need more room than the standard CR shell then either the XXX Phobia bodyshell or the XXX BK2 shell will do the business...

I saw the Phobia in clear lexan...what is the difference to standard xxx-cr shell....couldnt see much to be honest or perhaps I wasn't looking hard enough?

THANKS for posts guys

Basically the cut lines... The phobia shell has higher side pods to the CR shell and is a bit 'rounder'... hope that makes sense?

[styleone]

Makes perfect sense mate. Thankyou for the insights it is greatly appreciated, just got to order atomic cr2 conversion now and I'm set for my Xmas project...if anybody has a cr2 for sale let me know,ideally the se - red carbon

Thanks for posting regarding xxx cr shells, I'll have another look into phobia guys

Cheers

What you can do is buy the XXX-CR shell and ignore the cut lines but instead cut where it goes to a 90degree angle... not sure if that makes sense?

Ill take some pics of my dads as this is what has done along with a few other people

Hi mate,

Photos would be brilliant mate...look forward to seeing how you got it done mate

[Tom3012]

Sorry for the slow reply, ive not forgotten, just been busy... Ill post pics when i get home this afternoon

[Tom3012]

Sorry, cant take any pics of mine, my dads gone away and taken the camera... however, if look at this thread, post #280, the blue shell, you can see the cut lines where hes left it and cut the shell lower...
