I know not many guys do this... but for a $100 chassis, this stuff is pretty easy to apply and actually does last awhile. It does work in protecting the chassis a little longer.

On my ttr S3 nitro, maybe a gallon, then I cut off the back half and replace it once. On an indoor track, I bet this stuff would last even longer...

It comes as a large sheet, easy to peel, easy to mark, trim and cut. I didnt have a full sheet to apply, so the front got a little blotchy... oh well.

I know the Serpent chassis/car is pretty narrow, more narrow than other kits, but not as narrow as my ttr S3 nitro chassis!! (on the right in the photos)

Again, notice the square blocks where the diffs sit on the ttr chasis? This is for gaskets on the bottom of the diff! Very high quality shit back in 2004!

Make sure to trim the edges of the chassis with a clean, sharp xacto blade and press the film down with a ruler AND the curved handle from a pair of scissors!

Be sure to cut the screw holes with a body reamer IN ONE DIRECTION ONLY. This prevents the protective film from "lifting" if you do it from "inside" of the chassis.

After using the body reamer to open holes for each screw, I use the Racers Edge exacto blade, really a Scapel, to precision slice away extra film in the screw hole. Easy to do.

Total install including trim, cut, apply, smoothing, holes for screws is ... about an hour!
