What is the best way to attach the spoiler to the xxxt-cr Illuzion body? The body did come with 2 small screws and 2 small plastic nut looking pieces with holes in the middle, just not sure on exactly how to use them. Thanks in advance for any info.

There should be two small dimples indicating where to drill the holes for the screws. Typically the screws are run from the topside of the body and the nuts are placed underneath. Using a strip of servo tap between the spoiler and the body is a good idea as well, so its better supported.

I would try a set of Gold Sevens and see what you think, just make sure to prepare them in a similar manner to Pinks. You might want to get some firm foam as well.

Hi guys, Andy, I need some advice on foam trimming. I just picked up a new set of 2.2 Goosebumps front and rear (man the rears are hard to get a hold of...
). I have very little experience trimming foams since just recently got back into the hobby and in the old days there were no foams...
So basically I have no problems trimming the inside edge for fitting to the rim. But what I was wondering is about trimming the outside edge to fit the natural curve of the tire?
Do you guys do this to your goosebumps? Or do you leave it square. I'm wondering what this will change on the tire itself.
Any help/advice with this would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers!
