BC's Custom 350Z

I finally got back to painting an Xmod, this time my new 350Z. I also did some custom work to the body kit. I added the mild body kit, but shaved off the bulky side flares, and shaved some of the front and rear air dams. I then slapped a custom paint job on her. It's a very subtle tribal style flame on the sides and the hood.

Thanks!

Everything was painted with rattle cans. I used Tamiya Gun Metal for the flames and Light Gun Metal for the rest. Basically all I did was paint the body the color the flames were gonna be, then applied the masking in the shape of the flames, and then painted it the color of the rest. Finally removed the masking to reveal the flames and applied clear gloss.

Thanks guys! I do lay down a thin coat of primer to give the paint something better to stick to. It also lets me see any imperfections that need sanding.
