As you can see I only drilled the front holes. The camera and shit light dont do the pearl justice… that shit POPS outside. And I dont like how the headlights came out, i like the silver and black fade, but the blue “projector” is gehy. The entire sticker sheet is all good and has headlights on it so you can slap them on.
BTW, I love painting bodys. I have alot of colors and a bunch of airbrushes, and everything else I need to pull off some cool shit, so if you want me to pain a body for you just lemmi know.
WTF. I couldnt find the greddy body local… i wanted that one bc it came with the interfooler. Altho the Nismo edition (i have) came with better stickers … lol.
BTW that body came out great. Painted the outside didnt you… I think the 350z is the first im painting on teh inside. I never did bc the fuel eats the paint…
wat? You paint the outside!!! I allways paint the inside. Not only does it save the paint job when you crash, it is very glossy and easy to clean. I use all kinds of paints, FasKolor, Pactra, SpazStix… I never had a problem with fuel eating the paint, what kind of rocket fuel are you using! There is a sealant coat you can spray a layer of if there is any consern. I picked up the body at hobby town last year.
? theres no difference. Its called not crashing, and if i did, i have 4 other bodies on standby. Ive had no problems on the outside! The gas ALWAYS eats at the paint thus making the rear and driver side look like shit. Theres no face palm about it. ALOT of people do it on the outside… I use nothing but top fuel/monster/trinity @ 30% nitro.
Will post pics of the new truck and progress, on this money pit!
ok so what happens when you roll your car with a shell painted on the outside?
You have to re-spray it. Not to mention if you want a decent finish on the outside of the shell you’d have to clear it.
Which is totally retarded, considering you could save yourself many headaches and paint it on the inside, having a much more durable and uniform finish with less than half of the work.
Plus people who know what they’re doing won’t make fun of you.
:rofl… i bet you can get your M3 to roll over it… lol.
When i go out this weekend, ill put on the alfa body (shittest body i have) and try to roll it @ 30mph. With the tires i have, i dont think its possible. But nothings impossible!
240: … painting the inside. just like they are suposed to be. not to mention bodies all come with overspray protective film applied to the OUTside of the bodies. I am just fuckin wit yah dude.
Honestly, check Faskolor paints. I have been using them and they are great. More paint for the cost per bottle. Acrylic so it is water (i use clear windex for thinner) cleanup/thinner. And by it self it is fuel proof. They also make a Faskoat which is yet another level of protection. You have to raise your airbrush pressure to 50-70psi instead of the 15-25psi for the other paints.
