Whenever I download skins for both types of hogs, the base of the RL on the RL hog looks the same as the base of the chaingun on the other hog. The same is true for the meter sensor, and display. Its probably because the RL hog uses some of the same bitmaps as the chaingun hog, but is there a way to change it, such as duplicate the bitmaps and make the RL hog use the duplicate instead?

yes, but that would require advanced skills and a very thorough understanding of Halo Map Tools and the rebuild function in particular. Basically, you extract the map, make a copy of the desired item and re-name it, all it's dependencies, and re-list it in all the .xml files under the new name, and re-build it.
