Building & Detailing the Tamiya Audi Quattro A2 Body Set - P2 - Stickers!

- Hello my friends! Welcome to the first Mark Bryan RC video of 2020! Today I am applying the decals / stickers to the Tamiya Audi Quattro Rallye A2 Body Set. It was quite tricky, but I think it turned out OK in the end - mostly due to the use of a hair dryer! I wanted to include the installation of the LEDs, but sadly I ran out of time - so there will be a Part 3 of this series that will focus on how I get the 10 lights up and running! All the best to you all for 2020 - have a good one!

Thanks for good tips. Looks very Nice. Tomorrow I shall add stickers to my Audi.
You are very welcome, Johan! Thanks for the nice comment. Have fun with those stickers! 😎👍
Just finished my Audi Quattro A2 body and it looks great Thank you for the tips.
That's awesome! I'm pleased your Audi came out well, Glad the videos were of some help. Thanks very much for the comment, all the best from Mark... :)
Great work…🤙🏽 Greetings from germany.🤟🏾
Many thanks! Greetings from the UK! 😎👌👍
Hey BROSKI 2020 Let's GO!!!! I'm playing catch up but wanted to make sure I watched my BROSKI'S video, Looking awesome!!
Hey BROSKI!!! Great to read ya my friend! Glad you could drop by, thanks a lot - a great 2020 to you too bro! :-)
Brilliant work my friend! The Audi looks fantastic! 👍
Thank you so much Charlie! It was a real labour of love, and I really do love it! Can't wait to get it running on the dirt! :-)
Just got to love those tamiya stickers! 👍Looks great Mark!
Thanks a lot, Steve! Yeah, those stickers are a beatch! Haha! I really appreciate the comment bro! :))
What a bloody pain in the jacksy! Good job sir, you are a better man than I. I admit to having a little cry watching this and thinking of my forthcoming Lancja Delta build with the Martini livery.
I was interested in Tamiya adding a bonnet line. I’m not sure if you watched Matteo’s RC channel? He cut very thin strips if black sticker and applied them on his Pearl-white Mercedes Jeep along all panel joins. It looked very realistic and I think it would add to your build too.
Anyway, looking forward to the lights going on. This would look fantastic running on a snowy winters night with lights blaring. Flashback to the old Lombard RAC rallies of the ‘80’s on the BBC, when they actually showed sport, and not just reality shows and gender-neutral programming.
What a fantastic comment, Alan! Oh my, the Lancia Delta sticker job! Yes, now that one makes the Quattro livery look easy in comparison! But a little patience and the use of some heat and those stickers will go on correctly. Good idea about the panel lines, I could look at adding them to the doors (actually, the box-art does show those lines applied). Oh man - I'm with you on the RAC rally on the Beeb, and I remember my dad taking me to stages in the Midlands. There was one in Sutton Park - I swear you could almost touch the cars as they went past!
Simply amazing Mark. It looks the business dude. 👍👍
Many thanks my mate Tibs! Gotta love a Tamiya rally body, simply the best my friend! Happy New Year dude! :-)
It’s came out a treat great upload bud. And nice video to can’t wait to see her ripp 👍🏻👍🏻 old school look I love it 🔥🔥🔥
Thanks my mate Mark! Yeah, you know me by now, always old school every time! Looking forward to giving her a proper bashing too - all the best my friend! :-)
wow what a fantastic job bud.. You're right. Patience is a virtue, need to relax and do it right. You want it looking good on the trail.. ;) you did a great job on the body stickers.. Love the look of this thing mounted on the chassis.. Looks amazing..
Thanks for the great comment, Nick! Yeah, no point trying to rush these jobs, there are no real short-cuts you can make if it is gonna look good. I'm really looking forward to running this one - it should look nice through the camera lens too! All the best my friend, have a great 2020! :)
Awesome job Mark ! It looks really great.
I'm going to look this video up again when i'm doing mine.
Happy new year and all the best to you.
Hello Are! Thanks for the nice comment, yeah I really am pleased with the Audi, looks as good as the box art!
Cheers for the good wishes - thanks for all the support in 2019, and all the best for a great 2020 to you. :-)

Hi mark,that’s an amazing job you done,it looks beautiful, and the decals are the bomb 💣💥💥💥
Hi Mikey - thanks for the very kind words! I must admit that I was dreading this job for fear of messing up - but the hairdryer saved the day! All the best for a great 2020! :-)
I am absolutely fascinated Mark .It looks so great ! Every detail fits together perfectly .Everyone who put stickers on a body shell, knows how hard and difficult it is.I wish you a nice rest of your sunday my friend.
Thank you for another great comment, Harry! Yes it was a tricky "job" but if you take your time and take a few breaks, it's possible to get all the stickers lined up as Tamiya intended, and a little use of a hairdryer, of course! :))
I finally got to finish watching this one. Those decals were complex! That would have been difficult to paint, but I think decaling it looked even tougher. Nicely done man.
Thanks again, Kevin! Man, those decals made my hair go grey!!! But give me decals over painting any day - my paint skills are not what they used to be! Cheers for the kind message, all the best from Mark... :))
I'm currently putting the sticker's on my TT-02 I think there is 110 different decals it definitely takes patience to put them all on great job Mark I like this body it's a nice rally shell😎😀😁✌🏻
Oh man Mark thanks for the great shout out that was unexpected and put a smile on my face😁😁😁
Hiya Brent! Yeah - TOO MANY STICKERS! Haha, but it is worth it in the end, I think only Tamiya do body shells this good, but the modeler has to put in a lot of work to get to the end result! Thanks for the kind words bro - all the best my friend! :-)
No worries, it was a pleasure and the least I could do after receiving that fantastic letter! :-)
@@MarkBryanRC very true the tamiya bodys look the best but they definitely make you work for it lol😎😀✌🏻
Wow - the car looks terrific - great work!
Cheers Del! Looking forward to running this one my friend, hopefully on a night stage with all lights blaring! All the best and Happy New Year! :-)
@@MarkBryanRC And a happy New Year to you and yours!
Rather You than me mate. That looks really tricky. Well done ! I hate decals. P.I.T.A.. If I ever get a build with decals this difficult I'm posting the body to you ! Hope your first day back at work goes smoothly Mark 😊👍👍
Hiya mate - the first day was better than expected, thank you! Always a shock to the system going back after a long break though! I know you could do one of these bodies, but if i can ever help you out with anything, you know I would my friend! All the best my mate! :-)
Awesome job as usual mate . I really wish I would thought to do the boot stickers in the order you did . That small flap in the centre keeps lifting on mine and I haven't even run it yet . Looking forward to seeing the lights !
Cheers, John! Yeah, I looked at the instructions, Tamiya are usually right, but I thought the stickers would stay fixed better if the top ones lapped over the lower one. Glad I did, thanks very much for confirming that! Enjoy your Audi Quattro, I hope my LEDs work! Best regards from Mark.. :-)
What a nice looking Quattro body, tricky stuff these stickers, but you did a Great jobb 😊👍
Thank you so much for the great comment, Fredrik! Yeah the stickers were a pain in the a$$!!! But it turned out OK in the end - thanks for watching my friend! :-)
That thing is looking sweet
Cheers, Sean! I have to agree, this is a sweet looking Tamiya! :)
I really appreciate your videos! I just completed one of these. It took much longer than expected, but it was fun nonetheless and it looks really great.
Hi there! And I really appreciate your kind comment! Yes, it's well worth spending the time and effort on these bodies, it's so rewarding in the end! All the best from Mark 👍
Nice video mate, a lot of work on the stickers!
Cheers, Ady! It was a lot of graft, but these Tamias are really worth it, as I know you agree! All the best mate! :-)
Awesome 👍😉
Thank you very much! :)
I Love How careful you Are when putting your Stickers on Mark, as always you have to a professional Job Brother, it looks totally awesome, carnt wait to see it in the Daytime👍🥰👍I got a Christmas Card off Brent to, Hes a Great Lad 🥰Amazing How to Video Mark my good mate I enjoyed every single minute 👍🥰👍
You are such a kind chap, Tony! Thanks very much my brother - well I am really happy with the outcome, boy it was a lot of fiddly work! Yeah, Brent really is one of the good guys too! Thanks for the amazing support my mate, I don't know what I would do without good friends like you - peace and love for 2020! :))
Next time I'll send you my bodies to put on the Stickers! 😂
Great Job, Mark....
Thanks so much, Peter! Hehe - yeah, put the body in the post and I will do my best, but I am sure you are more capable than you let on! I'm sure that you do a great job. Thanks for the kind words my friend! :-)
Way to go, Mark! You did great! Seems like putting the masks on was just a prelude to what's next for you. It's a magnificent achievement, thank you for sharing that, this rally car is just superb and a perfect reproduction of the original (My father would have loved to buy it back when it was finished!) . I have to force myself to keep the hairdryer close to me when I do this kind of work. . . Excellent Sunday to you, my friend 🌈
Thank you for the kind message, Alex! Well, I just had to get this one right, to pay justice to the beautiful original rally car. It did take me about 10 hours for the complete process (cutting out the stickers alone took a couple of hours) but it was worth it in the end. Yes, I recommend you have a hairdryer handy when trying this type of Tamiya sticker job - it saved me many times! Thanks again, and a wonderful Sunday too you too! :-)
I love it brother
Many thanks buddy, I appreciate you taking the time to comment - happy 2020! :-)
@@MarkBryanRC thank you and you have a Happy New Years 2Q2Q brother
A heatgun works amazing for complex curves etc
Thanks, Evan! Heatguns are great especially if it has adjustable heat settings. I like the hairdryer as it doesn't get too hot. All the best from Mark. :-)
Fantastic job Mark, she's a real looker alright! Your attention to detail with these decal jobs is first class sir... ;-)
Cheers, Ben! Yeah, she really is a beauty, I'm so pleased I got this body set, it's gonna look great lined up against my other rally cars. Thanks for the kind words my friend, and Happy New Year! :-)
@@MarkBryanRC Happy new year Mark, cheers... :-) Ps had a mare paint job on my Scooby Impreza like your Skyline today, wiped the area off at the front of the bonnet where it had puddled and didn't get away with it & should have left it alone like you did before you patched it up at Rob's! Its a bit speckled like a marbling effect there now hoping the Subaru decals should cover most of it lol!!!! ;-)
Oh No! Sorry to hear that mate. It's a real bummer when a paint job goes bad. I know exactly how you felt - I had a kind of panic set in when it happened to me, thinking "what the hell can I do now?" I really hope that the decals cover most of it - good thing is, it will still look good when it's zooming past at 20mph though! :))
@@MarkBryanRC Cheers mate, First thing I did is refer back to the video you did while the paint was collecting in a pool!! It will be fine it's more of a runner in order to save the Lancia Delta Integrale bodyshell (nearest body i've done to a shelf queen lol) anyhow... :-) Maybe I'll have to buy another TT02 kit to get a shelf queen shell next time!!!
Hey Ben, glad it doesn't sound too bad - I tried to keep my Lancia body as pristine as I could, sadly not very successfully! It's not destroyed though, so I found my old Z3 basher from the 90's to use on a day to day basis. Always a good plan to have a spare body - anyway, any excuse to get a new TT02 kit sounds good to me! :)
I had a REALLY difficult time with the rear quarter panel stickers. Yours matched up much better than mine, but I'm still happy with the overall build.
Hi Clint - yeah, that section is particularly tricky, I don't think my stickers would have lined up so well without the hair dryer warming and softening the stickers. Glad you are happy with your build! :-)
nice body Work..!
Cheers Bro - I really appreciate that! :-)
Mark that is totally amazing job who needs a tamiya XB wen we have got you. You are definitely the number one tamiya man in my eyes 👀👍 also I got a card from Adventure time to 👍👍
Cheers my man Kirkster! Very kind of you my friend - yeah it was awesome of Brent to send those stickers and a card from America, I saw it on your video too! Have a smashing weekend mate! :-)
Mark Bryan RC you to mark 👍
Omg I bought this shell too I was looking at the V8 shell so I bought both
Omg!!! Both bodies? Haha 😄 you must be a sucker for punishment 🤣 good luck with them 😉
Great video and a beautiful result! The body work is definitely where the bulk of time spent on building these cars goes. I don't understand why some complain about them - if you're building a rally or Super GT car, it's a huge part of what makes the car what it is. The liveries speak to people.
Thanks you my friend - I have to agree with you totally - these iconic rally car classics are all about the image, they need to look just as they did back in the day, memories, memories! Glad I got this one, gonna be painful to put some scratches on this beauty, but it just HAS to be run! :-)
Looking good Mark, your not gonna want to use it lol 👍🏻👍🏻
Cheers mukka! You are spot-on mate - I really don't want to mess this body up with a crazy crash into a tree! But hey - that's what they are made for - having fun! All the best my friend! Happy New Year! :-)
Hi Mark. Waiting for delivery on my Audi so hoovering up all the films on the build. I thought the body construction would be the most tricky, looks like i was right. The stickers look a bit daunting as I've got sausage fingers! Learnt a lot from your films. Cheers!
Great you got a new kit on the way - a good time to build whilst in lockdown! Yeah, the bodywork is the trickiest bit, but very rewarding all the same. Good luck with yours, and don't worry, I have sausage fingers too! :)
Were is the best place to buy that kit....
Howdy. I have one of these and it runs great. Bought two great batteries for it that fit in great.Was with grand kids one day and I stopped the car but it slowly coasted to a stop hitting a rock and it broke a suspension part. I have a spare kit for it but now all I have left is one spare side. Where can I find another complete kit? My kit bag as markings of RC and SPARE PARTS along with what appears to be a part number of 400 and NO.181. It's a Tamiya Plastic Model CO. located at 628, OSHIKA, SHIZUOKA-CITY, JAPAN. Thanks for you time and consideration in locating a kit like this. Cheers,Dave
Hi there!
I don't know where in the world you are, I'm in the UK and they are available at most Tamiya retailers, here is a link:

Hope this helps!
MY GOD MAN!!! 😳
What a challenge. I love it!! Can't wait to try it meself! 😉
You MADE it look like the whole thing worked a treat...
But we know different! 😖😳😮
That looks great my Friend. 👍👍
Carmine ✈🚂🚙
Side note... I got a late Christmas Present from another RC Aircraft friend!
Something I've wanted for awhile... A 1946 Dodge Power Wagon Body for my Crawler!! 😳😀😊😊😊
Yes, I want and NEED a Body for me TT-02... But GAWD this is going to be sweet!
Cheers mate! Yeah, this sticker job looked easier than it really was, lots of swearing and fiddling cut out of the edit! The end result makes me happy though, so it was worth it. Gotta say, it's harder to try and do this on camera, twice the things to think about, keeping it in shot and all that! Thanks for watching my good friend! :-)
That's great news indeed mate! I'm sure we'll see it on screen very soon! :-)
Yeah Bro, there would have been a lot of swearing in my last Video too...
Probably should have put it in - good for fighting COPPA!! LMAO 😄😆
Your effort was WELL worth it my friend!
Not too soon....
I plan on a FULL STOP detailing and Scale details job!! 😊
I'm excited 😁!
It's still "plan T" for a TT-02 Body. 😉
Hi Mark, some more fantastic tips! Have you built the Tamiya Lancia 037 kit? I’m torn between the Audi and the Lancia for my next build (and both look to have some ‘challenging’ painting and decal elements!)
Hi Jonathan - thanks for the positive words. Alas, no I haven't built the lovely 037 kit - it's on my wish list! Money is tight at the moment or I would have got one by now. I love both the Lancia and the Audi, either would be a nice challenge to have! Have fun choosing!
Great video, thanks! How do you cut out the stickers, is it better to use a knife or scissors?
Thanks for the kind words! Well, using a knife works very well, but if you slip it can be disastrous! So I mainly use scissors, as they are easier to control and less likely to cut where you wish you didn't! All the best from Mark... :)
I really don't like the grayish/silver stickers for the side view mirrors, so i found a 30 cal rifle brass i had, and an old piece of thin lexan from the body, used the brass as a punch, makes the perfect size " glass" for the mirrors. paint it silver first and let it dry, i'm playing with the idea of using some foil (aluminum) wrapped around it as well. if anyone tries this, use a piece of wood for the punch not your table, it stuck into the 2x4 i used.
Hi Bob, I agree those mirror stickers are awful! I was going to do something similar with some Lexan, but in the end left the mirrors off - they are the first things to go when you roll the car! Nice tip for anyone reading, thanks mate! :)
@@MarkBryanRC I got my youngest daughter (20) a TT02 Subaru WRX STI NBR Challange kit and the mirrors were the first to break off. Now on my 1996 Opel Calibra DTM body ( looking for a new body thats not over $225 ) the mirrors are very strong.
Lucky daughter! Great Subaru kit. Yeah, some of the mirrors stay on (like on the Lancia Delta) and some just fly off at the hint of a roll! All the best, Bob! :)
I had to use a bit of paint on the rear hatch !
Oh yeah, Michael - I nearly had to resort to that too! But the hairdryer saved me! Try it next time, it really works. Thanks for the comment bud! :-)
Yeah, patience is the key. Looks good, Mark. You’re a master with a hair dryer. Never tried it myself. Is it easy to feel the difference (stretch)? Nice sticker shout out. Great channel.
Goddag Mikael! Too True my friend, slowly, slowly is the key! Yeah, the hair dryer makes the stickers so soft, very quickly! In fact, it is very easy to stretch the stickers too much, one needs to be very delicate with them. But a useful tool if you can steal the hairdryer from the Missus! And Yeah, Brent is a good guy with a great channel! :))
Mark Bryan RC Yeah, he sure is. Yeah, no problem stealing it. I think it is pink though so will do it off camera 😂 No, just kiddin’. I will look cool with some pink. Will try it out, gentle. Thanks Mark.
Hehe - yeah, pink is cool and not just for girls! :P
...and it's amazing how much softer the stickers are, even with only a tiny bit of heat applied for a couple of seconds! :)
Evening matey. Wow that looked like a hell of a complicated sticker job. You've done a fantastic job on it. Top tips with the hair dryer. Hope you are enjoying the remainder of the Christmas hols. I didn't get any hobbying or videoing done today but I did do the task of swapping the TV in the mancave with the one in the lounge which I'd been meaning to do for a while. Had a little bash session with Ric round the golf course yesterday which was good. Just enjoying a few pints and a bit more Dukes of Hazzard and CZcams. Look forward to seeing the rest of the Quattro body build. Did you suss out the leds? Be great to do a night time rally stage. Laters mate 😀
Hiya Pete. Yeah, it was tricky but then not as tricky as the Lancia Delta! And without the hairdryer i would have been in trouble, it's saved me on many occasions before! Cool you got out with the RCs, I need to get out soon too. Hope you enjoyed the beer. I have been off work so long I never want to go back, but I know I will enjoy it after we all settle back into the swing. I have only had a little play with the LEDS, they look super bright on a 3v battery but I need to try and get them tested on 7.2v! Yeah, I like the sound of that night rally stage! Enjoy your Sunday, catch you later my friend. :-)
@@MarkBryanRC you know I was thinking about the Lancia Delta stickers while watching this and wondering if this was as difficult. Well you answered my question without me even asking! I think if I do a Lancia body it will be the road version without all the Martini stickers. Never tried the hairdryer method but if I do it's a good job my wife has one if I need it as I haven't used one since the 80's when I had a lovely bouffant mullet! Nowadays I have so little hair that it's dry about 10 seconds after I get out of the shower!
Haha! I had a mullet too! Same here now, no need for the hairdryer for hair any more! Well, Pete, I must by psychic - the Lancia is the hardest I have done, closely followed by the Mitsubishi Lancer. Although a real pain, there is still a reward when you see the finished body, so it's worth it in the end. Hope your week is going well mate! :-)
@@MarkBryanRC hi Mark. Hope you are having a good Friday. I'm more available for a chinwag today as my missus is on nights. I can give you a shout if you are free but don't worry if you are having family time. Me and Ric just had a great little RC session on the beach and I'm going to put a sample vid up on Mikael's Facebook group. I will be editing it properly at some point. Meanwhile I have some lovely beer. Laters mate 😀 🍺🍺🍺
Hiya Pete! Yeah, just got in from mum and dads, give us a shout if ya got the time! Warning - I have had several G+T's! :P
What glue I can used for lexan body? I want to install some scale details... Thanks
I use superglue (cyno) for lexan, just be careful not to apply too much! :))
👍
Cheers my mate! :-)
Finished stickers today. Thanks Mark. Trying to install body on chassis but its go very down touching the wheels - how to fix it on the mounts on the proper height ?
Good work! You need to insert the R-clips into the holes in the body posts to obtain the correct clearance! Good luck my friend! :)
@@MarkBryanRC What is R-clip? Snap pin? If its snap pins - so one attached before body and one after body like sandwich?
If I going to install LEDs - do I still need to apply lights stickers? Thanks
Yes my friend, apply the stickers as per instructions, the LEDS will shine through them! :)
Hi Mark,
Thanks for the brilliant video. My Quattro looks really nice and I’ve just added the rally interior but how do you get the body on securely with the interior mounted? Having spent 3 days detailing it seems a shame to cut massive holes in it for the clips to pass through.
Cheers,
Andrew.
Many thanks for the kind words, Andrew! I'm sorry, but the only way I know how is to cut some gaping holes in the cockpit - I know it's a pain after all that hard work, but you won't really notice it when you are running the car! All the best from Mark... :)
@@MarkBryanRC Thanks Mark, I’ll get chopping. I painted the parcel shelf bit white to indicate the stripped interior, so I might put an extra set of clips low down and make blanking plates from the interior off cuts. I might try your clever led spots idea next too. Thanks again.
@@andrewm1552 Good idea with the cut-offs - wish I'd thought of that! Have a go at the LEDs, it looks so good with them blaring! Cheers! :)
Hey Mark I am trying to build the demo but I’m having a little trouble pairing the controller and the receiver, could you explain your steps on how you did the paring setup.
Hello - I am using an old 27Mhz radio and receiver with crystals, so I don't have to pair the controller with the receiver! Sorry! :)
Thank you very much
Do I need rear bumper as well? It does not come with the kit...
Not really, unless you are going to reverse into a tree at high speed! :D
I have question. If I want to paint it (for example like röthmans have mica blue/white) it be better make details inside first or spray it on top and use then clear spray to finish it? Thanks for advice.
Hi! Well, you can paint either inside or outside but masking the details inside will be much harder to do. Painting the inside will protect the paint because of the Lexan on the outside. The downside of painting the outside is that the paint may scratch or chip off in a crash, but it will be easier to apply! Depends what your priorities are. Cheers! 😎👍
@@MarkBryanRC thank you for advice
You are welcome any time! 😎👍
Do you use all the window tint paint
Hi Jonathan - I spray the Tamiya PS smoke paint in very thin layers to get the effect I want - One can of paint usually does 3 or 4 cars. No need to use the whole can on one car! :-)
Thinking of buying one new....is it worth it mate...looks very cool...
Oh yes, mate - definitely worth it! I've had so much enjoyment from mine, one of my favourite Tamiyas. All the best, Happy New Year to you! :O)
@@MarkBryanRC awsome..happy new year to you to.
Body posts pretty soft - what best tool to cut them? Thanks
Yes, they are soft to soak up any impacts. I cut them with a stanley knife or hobby knife.
@@MarkBryanRC Thanks. I have seen blue main shaft on your car. Do you suggest to replace it and Aluminum Main Drive Shaft Joints as well? What else you suggest to replace for rally - like mandatory?
Hey Marc, your Audi is really beautiful. Have you used the standard wheelbase or the short? And what about the tread? My Audi will be delivered tomorrow. I'm looking forward to building it. Greatings from southern Germany.
Many thanks, Michael! Yes, I used the standard wheelbase, and fitted Tamiya Rally Block tyres - they are great off road rubber! So cool you got the Audi coming, I know you will enjoy it. Best wishes and greetings from the UK! :))
@@MarkBryanRC Hey Marc, thank you for the Tipps. My Audi is running and it looks beautiful. I‘m not shure about the ground clearance. I‘ve built with high, but it is max. 15 mm with custom tires. Does it get‘s better with the rally tires?
@@michaelpasler8070 Wow, Michael, you built that fast! Yes, 15mm is about right for a stock TT-02. The rally tyres may give you a couple more mm clearance. If you need more, look at my videos for the TT02 rally mods, I got 25mm clearance. Cheers. :))
Hi mark just wondering what is your next build I might get it and build along with you.
Hi Shane! Is this the same Shane as I know as rcnut? Well, still trying to work out what to do next - do you have any suggestions? It would be cool to do a build along together! :-)
All the best mate!
@@MarkBryanRC yep the one and only 😆 I'm just going back threw your catalog of builds 🤔
Hiya mate - great to read you Shane, I hope you are all good! :-)

The battery and charger were part of the deal, I got them as a pack when I ordered the kit from Time Tunnel Models - check them out for spares and accessories! :)
Thank you very much really appreciate it
Any time, bro! :)
Going to buy extra body for my TT02- Audi - Do you think 260mm w.b. body will fit? How to trim it for TT02? Thanks
Not sure about a 260mm body, I think I would stick to a Tamiya body made for the TT-02! :)

So extra just 3mm. To use on TT02 chaises
@@933pilgrim The Tamiya bodies fit the best, my friend! :)
@@933pilgrim Yes, 257 is the perfect fit - although other bodies are only 3mm longer, it is very difficult to get them to fit correctly! All the Tamiya 257mm bodies are a perfect fit! :)
It looks like theres a clear sticky cover on it? Does this mean you paint the inside?
Hi Paul - yes, you have to spray the inside of the body with polycarbonate paint - it means the paint won't scratch off the outside, perfect for RC cars! :))
