Stupid question but where you do guys buy extra screws? I lost the screw to the front wheel hub and would like extra screws on hand.

Thanks

Drove an RB6 yesterday and I must say, if I get another car, it will definitely be this one. Really impressed.

Here's mine. I have the speedo almost all the way back to the suspension hanger. I tried to get everything as midline as possible with the reciever on edge right against the esc and the capacitor right in front of that.
