  To make a simple body kit all u need is:
  
  bluetak
  super glue – i used loctite 401, just found it around da house
  paint
  
  Fristly get bluetak and put in on the front and sides. Mold into wat ever shape u want. Cover the hole thing in glue. Wait till it drys then give it another coat of glue. This is to make it hard then paint over it. I’l show you some pics once i get my hands on a camera. Tell me wat u think 😀

  as the glue wont affect the tac in any way it would be brittle and crack if you had a collision….

  nice one, as an extra bit of trivia you can mix a small amount (at a time) of plasticene into blutac to make it “super sticky”

  Froggy, I think there’s good instructions in the Competition Entries and Competition Discussion forum discussions. You just have to take the 40 seconds to read them through – sorry man.
