Although January was a super hectic month for us, my son and I were able to get outside a few times and have some fun with our Gen8s. Both of our trucks are filthy so the first thing I need to do is just give them a both a good cleaning and check over. Once I clean them up a bit, I'll do a few modifications
First on the list will likely be my son's Gen8 V2. He wants more lights on his truck so I have one of the 11650 LED Light Kits set aside for him and hope to find the time to install that some time soon I've also set aside a couple of the 11813 Clear Bodies and one will be going on my AXE. My plan is to paint one of these bodies gunmetal grey. I haven't decided yet on all of the details but I think I'll black out the rear roof section. I'm also debating on whether or not I should apply the factory black decals or, mask the body on the inside and use paint to recreate the stripes. I don't think this project will happen for a while so I'll keep debating on that one To go along with the new body, I may order myself another set of Injora wheels from Amazon, possibly in the grey colour then give my son my black wheels. Alternatively, I may try to color match my stock Gen8 plastic wheels to match the new body color...decisions decision Last but not least, I picked up a trailer to tow behind my AXE. It was a bit of a late night Amazon impulse buy and not exactly what I was looking for but it should add a little fun to our trail adventures I'll go into a little more detail on each of these projects once I tackle them That's about all the updates I have planned for the near future, hopefully I'll have some time to check off at least a couple of these this month 'till next time, have fun and stay safe Rob Comments are closed.
