Jada kit, so parts count is a little low, fit is dang near perfect. Box stock, gave it a light rub with some 1200 last night, primed before I went out this morning, painted when I got home this afternoon.

trying to decide whether to put a candy orange over the top as it will darken it a little and accentuates the pearl underneath.

I agree! Go for high contrast and a look that's different from the norm. Nice work so far.

didn't darken quite as much as I'd hoped but the way the gun was spitting and farting around I'm pretty happy with it.
