well, to make it pretty much simple the bodies comming with the Xray's are the Crowd pleazers
...when our employer made(to our Knowledge) there bids for the bodies proline made there bid for them to be able to supply them in such quick demand on such short notice...so what ended up happening they supplied them with "Existing" supply of Bodies they already had on hand...
(2 days more for ours)
and yes everyone is correct the holes don't line up...the car is close to the MBX5 but engine placement is slightly to the rear and the rear mounts are slightly off....ours are corrected for this.
along with the body being much thicker,and able to alow for the airfilters to fit easier within the bodies....and our after market ones will sell for around 12.50 but then all the bodies we sell are 12.50
but good news is any MBX5 body will work..
the nose piece will need a little more cutting to fit
but nothing more than what some may do ....
and do not use the cutting line for engine
it will be off!! and once you do make it correct it will be REAL LARGE!
to make it easiest mark the "Aproximate" center(while body is still clear)
of engine with a sharpe,make a 1/4 inch hole and place tape over it paint and from there you will have an idea where to make cuts
if the body is already painted find the "Aproximate" center of the engine drill a small hole find the center and you can go "Out" from there...
easire to go out and go slow finding the outside diamiter them making the wrong cut from the Begining.....hope this will help?
....for now the bodies Available from proline do not fit, they do but with minor modifications,but Proline we are sure will be able to address the problem and as with all there products of good Quaility will be made to fit like a glove as with most of there bodies...
how soon? no one will know but those on the Inside? but at around 2700 per mold to make and even more if they "Redesign" the body altogether
they will more than likely use the existing supply..
, we pretty much did as what our customers were asking for?
