The chassis it is sitting on was previously painted an aluminum color for one of my other bodies.

BC -
That is freakin' TIGHT. Probably one of the best I have seen on here. Tell me, what did you use to mask off the windows? You did a very good job. What kind of tape did you use? That seems to be the bad spot for most I have seen on here...the windows always look rough.

I use Tamiya masking tape. It has very clean edges and is made just for modeling. Another key is to not wait until the paint completely dries before removing the tape, sometimes the paint edges will crack when fully dry. Very slowly pull the tape off when it is still kinda tacky.

BC you just can't go wrong with your paint jobs. I love em all. I still feel tho it's a pitty that RS only used the square bodykits on the Z. I love the smooth Porche looking front ends, they look more like stock.
