"Orange" you gunna check out my RSX?

Here's my freshly painted RSX, it's still a work in progress. I have to put the head and tail light lenses and I'm undecided what to do with the rims. I'll probably shorten the spoiler and paint the ends black. Let me know what you guy's think.

I used Tamiya paints for the first time, and wow are they great!! I have been building 1/25th scale cars for years and I have experimented with dozens of paints, using cans and airbrushes and I am really impressed with this Tamiya stuff. As for the decals, I did the art work in corel draw and printed them on water slide decal paper on a laser printer.

Wow that color is great! Did you use primer? I guess its time for me to buy some tamiya paint. Anyone know where you can buy them? My hobby shops dont have them though.

I will agree with everyone else, that turned out great! I like the color, and nice job too. Very clean looking. I would shorten the spoiler too, and maybe paint the whole spoiler black. Just a suggestion, but paint the wheels black, but paint the outer lip the same color orange.

Hey BC,
Thanks for the suggestions. And to answer the question about primer, yes I used the Tamiya white primer.
