That color is beautiful on that S2k.

What color did you end up painting the F150? Or was that part left to the owner?

Cheers,
Kyle.

Thanks Kyle, I didn't paint the F-150, the owner is sending it to someone else for the paint.

Thanks Flip. :)

Update: Its been a while since I update this thread. :o I got a bad news and a good news. Bad news is that, last time I used Dupli-Color clear as a clear coat, and it completely ruined the body, so I spend a lot of time sanding and primer the body. Good news is that its finally got back to shape.

Beautiful Job! Also do you remember by chance where you got the first CF Decal? I just loved how it was small enough to be scale CF pattern not like most i see.
Also, there is a Dupli-Color Ad at the top of my page as i'm writing this. LOL Just some keyword enabled ads i guess.

The car looks rally clean and good too, glad you got it fixed.

Thanks, I should have never use that Dupi-Color clear coat on Tamiya paint, even though I got it fixed, but now the paint seems a little thick to me.

The S2000 is one of my favorite car.

Update: Got a work request on an iwaver Saleen S7 body. I received the body few days ago, just got a chance to work on it yesterday. All I have to do is to clean up the body, total spend about 2 hours in it. (without counting the time for putty and primer to dry)

This is how it looks when I first got it.

http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/k...0/IMGP1696.jpg

There's a hole on the front wind shield that need to fill up with putty.

Windows are messed up.

As you can see, nothing is removable, except for the side clips and the side mirrors.

http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/k...0/IMGP1702.jpg

The owner of the S7 is missing a front clip, so I made one for him.

http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/k...0/IMGP1704.jpg

Got the car all mounted up.
http://i279.photobucket.com/albums/k...0/IMGP1707.jpg

After some find sanding on the body, then I lay down a coat of grey primer on top. Here's the finished product.

UNBELIEVABLE! I love them all.

Be sure to get pictures from the other forum of the F150 and S7 after the owners get them painted up. ;) Don't leave us hanging.

Thanks, I'll try to contact the owner of the F-150 to get some pics of it, but for the S7 owner wants to keep it in primer grey, his plan was to paint it gun-metal or something but after he seen the fixed up body, he deiced to keep it that way instead.

Thank you.

Update: Its about time I should finish up the S2000. I have been working on it for the past few days. I build a Mugen spoiler for it then applied CF decal on top. Still need to do a few touch ups here and there, then it will be finish and ready to ship back to the owner.
