ThunderDragonCy 7881 Posted December 3, 2017 Check it out! Months ago I was looking for some different paint schemes for my Grasshopper2/Mad Bull shells that I use on my DT03. I just love the Grasshopper2 look. Found some official Tamiya Dress Up decals for the Grasshopper2 Junior. I bought some and sent them to Nathaneal MCI Racing to enlarge. Unfortunately the proportions of the Junior and the 1/10 scale shells are different. So after months or back and forth with MCI and drawing out paper templates on CAD I finally have the decals on my new shell! Mine are full custom colour as I wanted something to work with a yellow shell and my orange wheels. The stock option on this is a red/yellow/silver colour scheme. There are two other decal sheets too and they would all look awesome on a white or black shell, or obviously you can mix it up like I have. These have never been released for the 1/10 model so it is a really nice additional option, especially with the ReRe this year. Just search Grasshopper 2 on the MCI website. I know we aren't supposed to plug too strongly but nathaneal has been awesome and it wouldn't gave happened without his patience and help. What do you think? 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That would be really cool to see. There are three Dress Up option kits i did with MCI My car up there is a variation on the third option, and i have another using a coloured version of the first. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marcus2116 74 Posted February 18, 2021 Thanks! I am curious how the second option would look. I can't find an example online even looking at the grasshopper jr's. do you have an example? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
