I'd imagine it would be pretty tough to modify one of those thin lexan bodies, Lwin. Any trimming or sanding would leave it full of holes and any body filler would just crack off due to the flexability of the lexan. I was going to modify a Skyline Microsizers body since they are kinda cartoony and innacurate in the first place and the shape of it lends itself to an SVX remodelling rather well. If you have any luck with an accurate Lexan body let us know

You can tell the lack of craftsmanship by the wrinkles in the duct tape.
