In my not so humble opinion.....the side looks the best. And, I don't like s2000's very much, because they are usually quite ugly with some paint jobs, but you made this one look awesome! 
BTW, does the paint weigh your car down at all?

Hey xXx_Vegito_xXx,
Nice job. It's a little dark for me, but it's your car!  Now let's see it on the chassis!
 I'm a little confused...
I'm trying to understand what you did.
You painted your car red first and let that dry. Then you painted black over the red. Then you took some of the black off with the Q-tip & alcohol. Is that right?

Drive WRX, if you havent sent that evo out yet can you paint it like you did your one, i'll pay you, that is sweeeeeeeet. i love it, i may have to do that to mine if i could do it that well.
have you ever collected another hobby which required such fine painting, i used to collect warhammer so im kinda ok at detail and stuff but your cars are both soo damn good

Man Shypo,
Sorry, the EVO's already on it's way!
Thanks for the kind words, though. Yeah, I used to build model cars (mostly race). I entered local model contests too. I won Best Detail of Show once! 
So, that's where I get my painting skills...
I'm painting another EVO this weekend. It's going to be Yellow/Silver (different than my Red/Silver one).
I'll post pics when I'm done. Hopefully sometime this week.
Meanwhile, check out my Red/Silver EVO with 5-spoke wheels!
