I enjoy doing bodies that you currently cannot find decals for because I like the challenge of creating them. These are pics of my Micro RS4 Corvette that mirrors the Goodwrench decal set you have availiable for the larger Super Nitro Vette Body. This body goes along well with the Saleen Mustang body I submitted back in February of this year. I used a few of the decals from the kit that would apply and the rest of them I created in Illustrator and printed them out on an Alps MD-1000 Micro Dry Color Printer. I hope to identify several other racing schemes to reproduce for your other bodies as well.

Thanks,
Chad Lawhon

This is my stock Sprint RTR which came with the Porsche body. It's still stock, except that I replaced the bushings in the belt tensioner with bearings for reduced friction. This is my second car from HPI, first was Nitro MT kit, and both are great. Thanks for the great cars and keep up the good work HPI.

 

Hey HPI,

My name is Ronnie Olsen and I live just outside of Toronto in Canada. A few months ago I got the RS4 SS and does it ever go!!!!!!!! A few things that I've hopped up are the Tuned pipe and header set, racing clutch and a high performance air filter!!!! These are a few pictures of my new Lamborghini Murcielago, I used a pearl blue with a black backing, in the sun it looks awesome!!! As well I created my own lighting system with 5 volt blue LED lights hooked up to a 4.8 volt recharable battery. Keep putting out the good stuff and I'll keep buying it, Also I just wanted to say I love the website, keep up the good work!!!!!!!!!!!!
