just bought an Etek 3 (LT) in silver/ black.
just wondering if there were any coloured bits on the market to liven it up a bit?
dont want to send it for an anno or laser as its not really worth it for what i want, and can ovviously only anno metal parts and as i dont have the AM model that doesnt leave too much lol
also are the bolts and zick kits worth upgrading?
i dont play in tournaments so not bothered about shooting rediculous amounts of balls per second so would it be of any benifit?

thanks in advance
:D

hiya buddy, the cure 3+/4 bolt is a good upgrade to help stop breaks caused by the bolt. the zick 2 kit would be the most noticable difference as it reduces the kick. yeah dont bother about the upped board as pretty much every where has a bps cap

hope helps buddy

might go for the bolt upgrade, but theres hardly any kick anyway so dont think i will bother with the zick kit

its mainly the colour bits i want, might aswell make it a little bit different to everyone elses lol

thanks

Hello

As Josh says a Cure 3, zick kit or a hush bolt.

I dont think you will find a colour kit to fit the ETEK3.

If you google hush bolt or have a look on youtube you will get an idea what the hush bolt is. The bolts are very similar. The Hush bolt is very very slightly quiter. Some people like the hush while others like the cure.


Yes the cure 4 will fit an etek 3. Unsure what the cure 4 bolt is better than the hush bolt as it is a brand new bolt just out. The ego 11 have the cure 3+ fitted.

any parts from another etek3 should fit if you can get hold of them or look to swap someone with a different colour scheme from yours. thats what's done with my geo2 :)
