Huh so you do have a lazer FS already...to compare the B44 to?
I love this class so much I got a third one. Not only that my B44 is loaded with new parts, and a new undertray has already been painted. I just have to cut it out and install it.

thanks, I found one guys paint scheme in the photo section I liked, but I haven't really decided on paint scheme.
I may get a scoopless body from jconcepts. I will run factory body for now though.

Well here are some updates, got my order from amainhobbies. Some of the stuff is for my other projects. I will post more pics of some of the various items once I install them. You can see that there is a large difference in the front and rear foam inserts, I think the rear will need to be cut down a little bit, i'm glad I didn't glue the tires yet with the foam that came with them.

Thanks guys, I was planning on taking it out today, but its raining. Maybe tomorrow. I only had 3 colors, and I saw the liquid mask and thought I would try it out, I think if I had a better brush to paint the mask on with it would have turned out better that way it could have been more even because some of it was hard to peel off because it was too thin. If I had a airbrush and a few more colors I think I can do better, but it is my best body I have painted, this is my 4th one with rattle cans.
