Panda refers to black hood and black bodykit on a white car, as seen on the trueno:

I was taught that panda is the top part black and the bottom white, but ive seen a evo w/ the top red and bottom silver.
It might vary, i dont know. BUT i'm still unsure.

Did you just use primer and leave it that way? It looks nice, I was thinking of doing a Gunmetal Subbie a lil while back.... funny how when I said it Forum Members were like NO DONT DO IT... >.> lol anyways.
I say grey top, black hood/trunk. The rims look great, dunno what you're going to keep adding, but keep up the good work.

You should still do one though, it looks pretty sweet. My only issue is that the hood is glossier/shinier then the car itself and the black oversprays. ughh

meh. depends. my gf decided we had to get her an xmod when i was trying to round up parts for mine.
i vote for grey trunk and top. or atleast a grey top, the trunk would look fine in black to match the hood. i think a pink pinstripe down either side would look nice as well. looks really good. keep it up |

You can wax the car, which makes it more shiny, and leave the hood unwaxed and see where that gets you. You could also try another coat of clear on the body. As far as the overspray, take the hood off and paint it.

by overspray do you mean there are little black spots of paint on the rest of the paint? do you possibly mean it splatters or something? i've had model paint that splatters really badly before. i thought maybe that was the problem you were having. just a thought.

if you mean that the coat of paint on your car is too thick, then the solution would be to stand back a bit when you spray and obviously nice and even strokes, otherwise you might end up with a thick coa on the tail end of the car, while the under the hodd you can sill see the primer...

ah. i was assuming you weren't actually referring to overspray since you took the hood off and sprayed it seperately. like the poster above me mentioned, you might be too close, or just putting too heavy of coats. maybe a better explaination could help us understand better to give you better suggestions.
meanwhile just make sure you're an appropriate distance away. you want to use light coats and build your way up to a proper thickness. like he said, nice even strokes. it's kind of hard to explain without demonstration. it sounds like it might be something else though so i'll wait to hear back from you |

jus have the can at least 6 inches away at all times... that normally leaves a nice coat on the car w/o messin it up

Like i've said before, i respect people more who can get replies because of their xmod talent. Haha, should i have little respect for myself now even though i'm trying my best? :P
Well the over spray, yeah its just the can. The car's not primer, it's the actual paint but the gloss is a tad dim - so i need to fix that w/ wax or something. Thanks for the pointers all! I'm taking each into consideration, they do help.

Alright guys, here is the deal, lets get this on topic. The next person who posts about gender or any other off-topic banter gets infraction points. Segregating members based on age, race or gender is wrong and not tolerable on this forum, and will be dealt with.
I am removing the off-topic banter, and from here on in walk on your tippy-toes when posting in this thread. |

I really like how it's turning out so far. Have you decided on the rest of the paint yet?

Hey,did you make the headlights slanted like the 06 model?Cause it sure as hell looks like it. If I were you,I would make the trunk carbon fiber.I used to have a 04 Subbie with CF trunk in NFSU2 and it looked bad ***.
