Hi guys, I have today received (all the way from China via flea-bay!) the correct straight pegs for the body shell! :)

As you guys suggested they went in at the front bumper position nicely, meaning I don't have to drill any new holes into the body shell thank goodness!

y next question, is what sort of height should I make the body shell sit al? Should it be (the wheel arches) slightly below or slightly above the tyres?? Also what do you guys use to cut the body pin pegs down with so that it looks nice and neat and I'm not left with huge long sticking out pegs! :lol:

I always mount the shells so the lower edge is level with (or slightly above) the bottom of the chassis. That stops the shell from scraping on the ground when you run it.

Body mounts can be clipped short with a good pair of side cutters.

OK excellent, many thanks!
