Soon to get a Toyota Supra, questions about modding
my mom's real car has a shiny green paint job, it looks really cool and i'd like to use the same automobile paint on my new car, will that cause any problems? too acidic, too heavy, etc. oh, btw, my friends and i are all getting cars and modding them and we're gonna race them through the hallways at school in the morning, i'm definetly going for speed!

Don't forget to be careful of all the people walking around, i've heard many stories about poor bits getting crushed at schools nationwide

from past experience, there's slightly differing formulas when it comes to spraypaint, some work nicely whilst others eat away at the plastic like a fatkid eating chocolate....
go to a car place, get some PLASTIC PRIMER, THEN you can safely use any car paint you like....
or just use model paints (but i know what you mean, some car colours are much nicer than model paints)
