I'll second that. I usually just spray it all one colour, flat it and flock the floor but this makes me want to try something with more colours.

If it was mine I would BMF the trim, but I'm not a fan of painted trim on models. Plus I think it will suit this one with all the other chrome!

Nice - I really like the colour scheme. drooly

The trim needs BMF, otherwise you should have shaved it IMHO.

How about using some bare metal black chrome? I've always wondered what you could use that stuff on but with this color
scheme I think it would look uber cool happydance

ya i hear ya, but the only chrome that is left on this car is the outer wheel lip!! the bumpers i have dechromed and sanded of the bumperettes and painted the dark grey, and the grille i have dechromed and cut it up to put a photo etch grille in and then it will be painted!! wouldnt the bare metal foil be out of place around the windows and that then??
