Axial Yeti Build

[Darthintel]

Hello Everyone!
I'm new to this forum but not new to radio control. I wanted some thing new, and a friend / forum member showed me his Axial vehicles - so I had to have one! I just built the Axial Yeti and I'm very impressed with it's performance.
Now I have the SCX10 2012 Jeep® Wrangler Unlimited C/R Edition 1/10th Scale Electric 4WD – RTR on it's way - so I'll have a "go fast" and a "crawler" to also pull my future boat and trailer I'm going to build for it.

Below are pictures of the completed build. I have already upgraded to an aluminum red bumper with lights not pictured below.

Really digging that paint scheme. Simple yet effective

Cool, nice lookin' Yeti. I'd like to see your new bumper too.

And I'm with you, the Yeti is my first Axial, now I'm looking to get another probably a Wraith.

Below is a picture of the front bumper with the lights.

Is that bumper available to buy, if so where can I get my hands on one. That looks awesome. Really like how everything matches.

Nice, I got a Yeti in December and the 2012 Curie Wrangler in late January. Spending a lot of time making/buying scale accessories. Love them both............
