Let me start by saying this SummitLink police-style body is a game-changer for my 2WD Rustler. The pre-painted white finish and crisp decals gave my RC an instant authority vibe – like a mini patrol car ready to chase down rogue toy cars in my backyard.
The fit? Spot on. It clicked into place like it was OEM, with pre-drilled holes aligning perfectly with my Rustler's chassis. No frustrating adjustments needed – just bolt and go. The included sticker sheet was a nice surprise, letting me add extra light bars and markings for that authentic cop car look.
Where this body really shines (literally) is customization potential. Following another reviewer's tip, I added LED light bars that glow through the translucent light decals at night – the neighborhood kids think it's the coolest thing during our evening RC meets.
Important note though: This ONLY fits 2WD Rustlers, not the 4x4 version. One disappointed reviewer learned this the hard way. But if you've got the right model? This $30 shell delivers premium looks at budget price.
The thick polycarbonate has survived multiple rollovers without cracking, though I did reinforce the magnet mounts after one particularly brutal crash. After three months of weekly bashing, the decals are still holding strong – just some expected scratches from off-road adventures.
For Rustler owners wanting to transform their ride into an imposing police unit without breaking out the airbrush, this SummitLink body is absolutely worth every penny. Just double-check your model first!
