[poll] SHOULD YOU BUILD OR BUY A SCOOTER ?

[mat]

well, micros are really not that good, and the "after market" parts they sell are a big shitty ripoff. if i were you, id get a b model, old a model, or pro and mod/reinforce it. look at the "scooter modding super thread" and the "scooter mods & models explained" thread




and change your sig... it sucks
