Thanks for letting me know where to get some carbon fiber.

Does anyone know if the new body has enough room to accommodate for the height of the savox servos? Especially for the throttle, I remember my old bodies rubbed pretty bad.

I have been using the body in my electric with a pretty tall battery and tray, and there is plenty of room for that. You should be fine with the servos.

And all D8 type bodies work with the new car, no extra mods needed. The only thing to check is the placement of the rear body mount, as the D812 is using the one from the Vorza.

The Night Fox for the 808 is a great fit.
