Toyota Hilux Build- Pt.8

To start off, I used two circular plastic containers to make my wheel wells. I cut them each in half and cut them a little so that they fit inside the fenders nicely. I used plastic cement and a hot glue gun to mount them in the truck body. Don't worry, I still have to paint them, so they will not look like a plastic bowl!Then, I used a dremel to cut holes where the shocks would mount. I placed a Traxxas 2000mah Nimh battery under the hood to see how it would fit, although I will be using a 2000mah lipo battery (these batteries are the same sizes).

After I made the wheel wells, I wanted to see how my exhaust pipe would look. I used two of my jack stands to hold the pipe in the place where it will mount.
