OK so I've had my Chally 2 for a month now so guess it's time to redo it.

No major mod's yet as I want to see what aftermarket kit come out (tracks wheels etc) so I'm just doing some cosmetic changes first.
Start with the front armour upgrade-

Where and when did you get the Challenger 2? Is it a HL tank (I think it is) and how much does it cost? I search the web that the Challenger is rather new and just released a few months ago. Some online videos show that it has very soft and deep suspension. How do you feel with it?

@ Aplha - I think it makes it look a bit meaner

@ SteelBird - There's plenty online if you're in the UK.

Been putting this off as I didn't want to chop up a new tank-

Filled in the gap (looks sporty)-

Unfortunately, I'm 8,000 miles away from the UK. However, I just got my Leopard 2A6 a few days ago as I decide to go for big tank. Plenty of room inside, you can fit in whatever you want.

By the way, I notice your tank still have all plastic components. Are you going to upgrade them with metal ones?

@ Scrub Tanker - Theres four screws underneath. Two near the front and two at the back of the battery compartment.

@Crispy - They're test 3D prints for parts I put up on Shapeways

@SteelBird - I hope to add all the metal upgrade parts.
