Bought this HPI E10 along time ago and has been gathering dust in my garage for some time, Have some time off so i started working on the shell for fun!
Note: i did not buy anything for this shell just crap i found lying around in the garage!
What it looked like when i purchased it.

Removed all decals. Thicker than usual 190 shell so had to dremel out windows then sand and mask for painting.

Found some plasterboard tape and all purpose white touch up paint followed up by a clear coat of spray varnish.
ROUGH looking but iiiii like it
