painting problems
 
well after planning on painitng my skyline metallic blue, i have ruined my hood. luckily i decided not to do the whole car judging from the results of my painted hood. i will most likely get the body kit just for the CF hood, i think the other pieces are too flashy. one word of advice, if you have no prior painting experience...Practice,practice, practice before you paint anything of importance. i used Testors primer, paint but did not get to the clear, honestly the thing that kept me from painting the body was having to mask everything, VERY VERY TRICKY. I guess for now im content with my yellow with blue hood skyline, the colors actually look pretty cool together, i might do a set of wheels that color just to be different

I have practiced. My 1st paint job on a zip zap was horrible. A 1000 paint jobs better I am very good at spray painting.
