My tips made it to the September issue of RCDriver...it was really a simple tip - using rubber grommet instead of foam washer thru the body post to protect the body from cracking.

I have good success with a wide plastic washer made out of any type of plastic jugs to absorb any impacts to prevent the body from tearing

shoe goo or goop works also... glue around the body post hole.

Yes I agree shoe goo or even silicone around the hole helps too...or a Scotiabank client car helps as well...makes it more stiffer, use 2 paperclips and glue with CA and then silicone like no tomorrow.

My 2.5 cents

PeacE!

I tried the Scotiabank card thing...I know...and it does work!

drywall tape, mesh type, and shoe goo. I just fixed a body that had the front hood down through wheelwells broken off (dude cut out the whole front window). I did one piece to cover a fair sized area, and a second over the crack. I can pick the genesis up by the body now and it holds. dam genesis weighs a ton.

it was a trade, just had to have one. 4 wheel steering and reverse. be a fun basher once it's ready.
