Further Description/Back Story After driving without major crashes for a year, I managed to get my Arrma infraction ran over by a car while doing speed runs. Miraculously, the rc car escaped unscathed except for a few bends as well as the loss of its stock resto-mod body. This was the start of my Skyline build. After bending back parts like the shock tower, rebuilding the front right shock and adjusting the toe-out, I found a great Skyline body from Tacoma RC Raceway, as well as a nice blue paint. While painting the body, I noticed that I forgot to put the window pain protectors on and ended up with a fully painted body. The pictures include the prime of the body, but unfortunately after this I flipped the infraction at high speed due to low downforce and damaged the body heavily.
