Show your RC 86's
 
I am placing my order for my RC drift 86 car today. It is going to be a Tamiya body just trying to figure out my chassis. Going for a mini version of my car.
First time I have decided to build an accurate drift car so I am excited to get started.
Post those pics up of yours if you have them!

Curious to see what people have. I wouldn't mind the smaller 1/12th (or was it 1/16?) versions since those are tons of fun. I still have a couple of nitro cars that are collecting dust and boy were those things a money sink ~_~

Nah, I personally do not like the look of the fog lights on this car. Plus I'm keeping it a replica (aside from the wheels) of the real thing. When you say rear bottom light, do you mean the triangle? If so, then ya, I just need to reinstall it since the housing broke. There is still more than enough work to do on it though. The original sidemarker lights were way to dim, plus installation in that spot is really hard. I also have to mask off the front turn signal lenses and around the fake vents, then spray them black like I did on the rear valence and my former body.

I have yet to touch anything with the body, but when I didn't have it off, I came around in a drift and hit one of the rear rim faces on a curve. There is a big scratch and stress marks near the hub, but only if you look for it.
