Yep, it kills me that RC'ers will drop $100 a set on tires that might work on a a given track, they'll swap motors at $300 a pop, they upgrade radios, they buy tools, they add KHZ upgrade parts like they're free, but ask them to part with a fair price for a custom paint job and immediately the price negotiations start. "gee, that much? I thought it would be like $40 max!". How many times have we heard that? Well, from now on I'm telling people that if they want cheap prices they can pick any single solid color they want for $15. If you want a design masked, cut and painted, is gonna be more. If they cannot afford a better looking shell, they can always just cover their old stock one with duct or electrical tape and hit the track stylin' !
