Sorry I should have added it's not mine. Another guy at the track did that and used RIT Dye. That's all I know about it. I know from stuff I have done myself, that I use very hot water to open the pores in the plastic. I like my white RS Gen 2 so I haven't tried it myself.

I'm curious to know how they did it as I have tried Rit Dye with no success.

Nick that looks like the one I made out of a Tekno front shock tower. I sold the car but I'm pretty sure that's it.

You are correct that's it. I figured it was a top plate from another car.

Here's my DXR8-E when it was still fresh and clean, the only scar it had was on the top of the front shock tower from flipping over on asphalt after I had a test run outside my house...

This buggy will never look this clean again!
