who paints on the inside, and who paints on the outside
 

what do you guys normal do paint them from the inside or outside? i mean i wanna paint them on the inside for duribility but does the finish look as good as it does on lexan? cause i know the pre-painted ones are on the outside, and i see a lot of people doin it on the outside as well.

I prefer the outside to be painted... This is due to the thick plastic bodies on the bits, It leaves the thick stuff like the side mirrors, grills , and bumpers clear.... Just an opinion.... Welcome to the forums... :)

my most successful coloring on the insides have been with dark colors...
using bright colors on the inside will make the edges show up on the car, and make it more clear which isnt good at all...
so if you are using black, blue, gray, etc....its good idea to paint on the inside, but its up to you, because its a little harder to mask the inside parts out
i paint small details on the outside...like side markers, rear lights etc....

mtl can u post sum pics of the ones u painted on the inside, i'd like to see the differences. thanx bro

You need a "Inside and Outside"/"Both" option in your voting options for MTL because he paints the inside and outside depending on his choice of colors for his paint jobs. I paint the outside :D.

ur right dookie! but only a mod can do it. any mod wanna do it? feel free :D

I paint the bodies on the outside and the window tinting on the inside.

heres another question
 

do you guys paint the headlights or leave them clear?
i leave mine clear...makes it a little more realistic i guess

inside is muche better..but you can only get a few clear bodies....no supras....NSX.....AE86...
