JConcepts 2020 Ford Raptor BF Power logo MT body

JConcepts lowers the boom on the latest body for Losi LMT and Axial SMT10 vehicles. The BF Power logo is a collaboration between JConcepts and the gracious Bigfoot 4X4 team on a fantasy style and fan inspired scheme. The identity is produced to lay out on the JC 2020 Ford Raptor body which is popular in the RC and full-size monster truck community. As one of the best performing and most accurate body shells on the market, the Raptor fits well and allows the trucks to reach their maximum potential. The decal scheme itself pops. Large racing bolts make their way on to the sides of the body giving a nod to racer stripe schemes from the past. The bolts continue through the A-pillar area and over the nose in dual fashion to bring excitement from the side to the front-end. The BF logo treatment is developed to stand-out and fill door space featuring an updated digital desert landscape as inside artwork. A large selection of official sponsors, Bigfoot terminology and miscellaneous JConcepts decal finish off one of the nicest logo packages around.
