Yeah well i have an old samurai i've had since high school so that tends to be the rig i really abuse (just got back from bashing around at a friends little course) I plan on sliders for the vx definitely and will be trimming quite a bit off the front and back bottom part of the cladding. I already have a few scrapes in the cladding i just mainly want something so it won't scratch as easily. Tube fenders? Front and rear bumpers? For a VX? Where and how much and all that? I've only found the sliders at rocky-road.
