It looks good. Did you take it apart or just mask it off? Also, did you use a airbrush?

The flakes make it look like a bass boat. But all in all, it doesn't look bad.

Funny you should ask, I took the whole freakin thing apart except for the upper grill. Decided to make it look more real than before.

If he can just post them on here for me to see, that would be fine. If you post a link to it, I am screwed. If you post the pic on here, I am ok.

didn't sand because was worried about loosing details and having sand marks show throught the new paint, just wiped down good with rubbing alcohol to remove oil and crap. If you get fisheyes then wipe down with carb cleaner and paint ,should stick fine and make light coats and let dry completely before reassm. The hardest part is removing all the stuff you don't want painted and then super glueing it back together. Wish we could get these thing in a model form, it would save a lot of BS.

I am pretty sure Jada Toys is brewing up a model form. I have pretty much seen every DC car makes it's way to the model kit line. If they do it will be time to hook the xB up. I might shave the rear emblem and try to get rid of the Dub City window stickers. ANYONE KNOW HOW TO GET THE WINDOW STICKERS OFF????

Never tried but maybe something like rubbing alchohol, but it's got to be mild or it will melt the plastic. I'll try is and report back **update, the rubbing alchohol softens it up enough to scrape it with your fingernail and it doesn't hurt the plastic**
