Now all we need are neon lights to put on the bottom of the car and some spintek rims. The type that keep spinning when you stop the car or slow down. That'd be nizzz.

Only problem is the neon light is 7.5 inches long. Where would we put this?

Only too bad they plug into your cigarette lighter outlet thing. Maybe you could do some soldering there but would you get enough juice out of a battery pack sharing a micro RS4? Or maybe a seperate battery pack.......

for me whenever i put my hpi leds when i drift wit my show body, i had the stock 4 cell batt pack on top of my blind six pack, but of course i had it tied down to the blind pack and it was all good cuz the leds werent taking any power from my blind pack(which was the pack that was connected to the motor) so juss connect another pack to it. but that is only if u can get some hpi connectors on there.

I asked that one company who made the neon lights for micro cars, and they said that you can cut the body lights to fit your micro. This means that you can get body lights from them for about $20. Good deal

or either u can get the rims that come wit the blaqck escalade from the dub city models and take those tims and juss mod them a little like put a beaaring in between the plate and the actual rim and it may spin. i dunno i got this idea from one18th. they r also taking bout this.

Well i am new to the micro world, but i thought i would make myself a show car. Right now i am waiting on my neon lights, my air brush, my mercedes and my Spintek rims. So has anyone tried to mount the rims yet? If i can find time inbetween work and the gym, i am gonna try and mount them up this week when they arrive. but with time, i WILL have a micro slammed and riding on 24" scaled rims. Somebody hollar if you have already tried this.
