RC Dreadnok Thunder Cruiser Update

I've made a few decisions regarding the RC Dreadnok Cruiser I'm working on. I've painted the body metal flake purple. I'm thinking of either putting racing stripes down the middle of flames on the hood. I'm also kicking around the idea of painting a fender primer like is just got replaced, or making it look like Bondo, it is the Dreadnoks after all. I'm gearing up to enter it in the Wheels for Joe contest in Atlanta, so like always, any suggestions would be appreciated!

well, i don't know how hard it will be for you, but i recommend doing all that to it... and don't forget the hardware - possibly a cannon up front & a couple mortar launchers in the trunk...

I'm going to put spikes on the hubcaps like the leader of the Scorpions had in Grease, plus some bumper stickers like "My other car is a Thunder Machine" and ones for Welch's Grape Soda and Dolly Madison lil Chocolate Donuts. I just have to make sure it's still drivable when I'm finished!

sweet! it'll kinda be like 'robot wars' or whatever that show is... you'll wipe the floor with the other guys!

can i drive it?

Sure you can drive it, just don't run over any pedestrians! I'm also thinking about the old heat up a needle, stick it into the plastic, and voila, bullet holes! At first I wanted to do it pristine and perfect, but then I thought that just wouldn't be the Dreadnok's style.
