Vamp MK II Repaint by vince_chua

Hi everyone, its been a while since I posted any customs. This is my 1st attempt on a vehicle custom or repaint. I wanted to make a vehicle for my C.I.A. S.A.D. Night Ops Squad by vince_chua and when I saw the new Vamp, I thought it would be a great choice. Initially I bought 1 set of RC Cars Rims & Rubber Tires but I couldn't think of how to fix them and not destroy the undercarriage. So I tried to force the rubber tires onto the existing wheels and I thought it looks alright. Though it does restrict movement a little but I'm happy with them. I will try and save up to get another set of tires for the Spare tire at the back. (they cost nearly as much as the Vamp)

Also I'm hopeless at electrical stuff, if not, I would have attempted to light it up. :(

Anyway hope you guys dig it.

Love the Spec Ops approach to this Vamp. Great work. I like how you added the rubber tires around the stock wheels. Nice.

that would make a good advanced stinger or some type of cobra vehicle, but great work man and needs some stickers i think.

Very nice. I love your squad and want to make one for myself and actually already have a spare vamp to paint black as well.

One suggestion - change the huge gripper to the hook that comes on the end of Shipwreck's handle and rope.
