haha. no i started this project at like 2 30 in the morning, and i heard a racoon coming out from under my house, and they have been tearing up my insulation. and i had to take care of some business. when i came back inside i just didnt feel like putting it back away and just set it down, didnt even realise you could see it in the pictures lmao. ill make sure not to let that happen again.

to each their own! thanks though. i dont think its a bad paint job as is, still looks good in real life, but its not what i wanted.

its a touch up automotive paint that you can order from PPG. i believe its even PPG brand... but its in an aerosol can instead of a mix together paint to go threw a gun. its called Championship white. i believe off an integra type R. one reason it went so dull. automotive paint is not a good hobby car paint unless properly clear coated.

ya i have a hobby shop by me that sells them i will have a look thanks

they are the best paint around for this type of project, and have just about every color you ever want! i think now days they even make chameleon paints in a spray can.

dude i love reading your post's and looking at your cars. i enjoyed reading this

Then you should read the rally team thread. Its this same thread, but with more added on. This is 2 months old! really shouldnt have bumped it. But thanks.

2 months = I haven't read yet either

Nice subie, though its not quite rally without rally gfx. I will, as always, propose stickers (maybe even precisely cut, since thats just as tedious as painting).

As for paint, if enamel stick fine to this palstic (and I think it should), then I vote for testors enamel due to its durability. Tami acrylic only for metallic colors unavailable by other leading brands.

okay i know you have read my rally thread. did you not notice this is the same car? and its finished?

and stickers have nothing to do with rally.
