Talking Rustler Upgrades?

Hi, i'm new to the forums. I'm not new to RC though, have a brushless torment. I am planning on buying a rustler, what other upgrades should I get.

I have rpm front and rear a-arms, aluminum casters, hub carriers, shock towers, steering knuckles, bulkheads, and shock caps. I'm planning on making it shadow/vampire based, so all of the aluminum parts are red.(also all of them are from STRC) Can you please recommend any other upgrades i need? I would also prefer if they were available in red

Skip the rustler, go straight to a b4

Then all you will need is a set of road rages or roadhawgs.

Sorry, not a big fan of buggies. Maybe other ST recommendations?

Get the rustler, it's one tough truck, if it's just for bashing it'll be your best bet. The hop ups you have listed will make it a great on road basher.
