All the packaged chassis pics above show the bottom. The bevel an recess is on the top. Yokomo would not say this on their product description:
" Further more, using black almight on surface, it will go perfectly with BD7 Black Series. This will also create luxurious feeling with bevel edge aluminium processing!! "

I got mine from Banzai.

Do you guys think the aluminum chassis will be best on high bite carpet or strictly for asphalt.

I adjusted a 2° toe angle and when it is deflected it moves to 3°.

Here are some pictures:

At the moment I have the normal rear in my car again to test the difference. But I will take a photo when I switch back next weekend.
At this side it is not so much space between the motor mount at the linkage, but it is enough.
