HPI RC Nitro Savage Police Vehicle 4x4 Monster Truck Model "Radio Control"

A mock emergency police response marked UK Police vehicle, HPI Savage X F4.6.

Standard Savage shell utilising the following items gives a good effect, its also on/off switchable on the fly making use of the 3rd channel and a RC receiver controlled switch.

RC model emergency lights TS10-01 from tspowerelectrics
RC Receiver Controlled Switch from storm_trade
Silver Tone Metal Sewing Thimble Size 8 from swanuk :)
Savage GT2 Gloss white body shell from ianwhorlow
Sticky Vinyl from stevestickers, total-solutions, stevent1358

For removing spray paint I used isopropyl alcohol and a cotton bud, for bonding I used 5 Minute epoxy resin. Other than that a lot of cutting and measuring.

I am looking into a siren, but to be compact enough and heard over the noise of the F4.6 im thinking its not possible. Any recommendations?

This is my first atempt at customization.
Time taken 9hrs :)
