Yeah, but it will scratch off easy when you hit stuff.... I good layer by layer of primer then paint will keep the paint on the body. We all know how the paint job you did is. .... Welcome, Ahh, I remember my first project. Have fun and feel free to ask around if you got questions.

Maybe modeling putty or hot glue? If not go for a convertible look

wow, I really like the effect of the painted parts, but the paint looks kinda thick, an I dont think painting the shocks and suspension arms were such a good idea as it will lead to binding of the suspension.
