Today we keep pushing the VRD Carbon build forward!

🎨🚙 I finally got the body painted, and while it turned out decent enough, the cheap Ali Baba/AliExpress body is still a little weak in the back.

Don’t worry though—I’ve got some ideas to reinforce it 💡 Maybe with a classic shoe goo & patch fix, or even a custom 3D printed brace.

We also dive into body positioning and mounts to get that perfect fit, and I even added a front bumper to make it trail-ready. This project is shaping up nicely, but there’s still work to do!
