As mentioned I am looking for suggestions. 190mm or 180mm or 200mm? Which is the best fit for TC6.1 Painted Bodies?

You need 190mm bodies.
I paint my bodies myself with a rattlecan. If you don't have two left hands it is easy. Just use Lexancolors for example from Tamiya.

the World chassis is narrower and is 2.25mm thick !
The stock chassis is 2.0 and wider. One thing we have been playing with si using the old chassis narrowed down to 88mm (96mm is stock) and it seems to work good and flex a bit more than WC chassis.
If I was to get a new chassis and dont want to do anything I would get the WC chassis, it seemed to be great on both carpet and asphalt.

I have completely tore my TC6.1 apart for cleaning and rebuilding. I run the car on asphalt during the summer and carpet during the winter. Since its apart I could narrow the stock chassis down to 88mm. But how is it done?

Demel with a cut off disk. Tape line for a guide and a steady hand

Cool, I got those tools. The cutoff disc's go fast on carbon fiber. Is there anything better? I have a air grinder with a cutting wheel but its like a 3 inch wheel.
Is it worth cutting or should I leave it alone? I have a spare thats why I thought I'd give it a try.

Can someone please point me in the direction of a source for a reasonably priced good painted Body shell for my tc6.1 WC. I have done a pro build on a new TC6.1 and it is just perfect in every way. (I am an engineer so you can guarantee no stripped threads etc.) All setups are currently stock. I am waiting on delivery of a 13.5T Motor, ESC, wheels etc. and just need a nice Body shell for display cabinet presentation purposes. I am not a painter so it must be painted. I would prefer a sporty type car like an NSX, Lotus, Porsche or such. I assume I must have a 190mm body at least (Is this true or will a 180mm fit?). This is my first TC6 so any help with body sizes etc. will be appreciated.
