        Here's mine:

        An outrage canopy on a T-Rex 450 consisting mostly of HDX parts.
        I've never seen the color as "pink". But now that you say it... yikes

        on well beauty lies in the eye of the beholder
        note the Frankenstein bolts as canopy holder (there's even a nut on the other side)

        PS: for visibility I would paint the windshield black.

              I was thinking of using a permanent marker pen to colour the windshield black.....that would be really nasty and tacky..... i'll do it later after a few cans...... think i'll call it the tennents canopy he he

                simply get some black plastic / gaffa tape and cut out some windshield-like shape. If nothing better is at hand, even black insulating tape should do.
                It's just as good as real paint, except on close examination it's ugly as hell. Which may be what you want

                          Ely.Q canopy experiment 1

                          This is at the disadvantage of starting with a canopy that seems to be universally regarded as an ugly shape.

                          I did not paint it pumpkin orange I got it already painted. But I am slowly adding sticky back vinyl. It's not done yet, it will have some stripes and things. But at the moment it's pretty 'asthetically challenged'.

                              the sausage-towing-dog-teasing CX2 is pretty tatty, especially after the dogs ragged it
