whoops! i forgot i'll remember that, thanks for that!

okay here some updates, ive painted the vette but as you can see i'll have to paint the inside of the headlights to match the rest and planning on making a custom body kit for it soon, any suggestions?( i was thinking masking tape but unsure) so enjoy!

just re-mask the windows and apply a second coat. (or third, fourth, whatever), but mjake sure you get the headlights and that line over the window. or you can take the ol' cheapskate trail and smoke the lenses.
