New Comp Body

nope, paint drying. Masks they sent me leaked a little paint so it isnt perfect but I dont care it'll get beat to heck soon.

Went white tub with a black top, its a fastback.

The Mask work great. I've used the same stuff on almost every body I've painted. You just have to double check and smooth out all the edges with your Finger. To make sure they are down good.
 
well here are some pics of mine after the second paint job wich is pretty plain i pretty much ran out of time get it ready for the weekend. i found out that sikkens paint does not sitck at all i pretty much peeled the whole thing off in one piece. great body clears nice rubs a bit at the tops of the fenders and the rockers will have to be rolled they seem to catch alot. great body plus it looks really cool. well here it be

Looks good. What is Sikkens Paint? Never used it before. I like how you painted the back cage in. Looks good. I see you made it a Round headlighted thingy...:lol:
 
How does it handle roll overs...Can you right your self like with the bug bodies...I know dont roll, but lets just say......................."thumbsup"
 
i had my first comp today with the body. the sqaure roof catches in tight spots and the flat roof makes it difficult to roll back to your wheels but other than that it works great. i also have mine mounted on the sides instead of the top it is a little thinner and it does crack around the holes a bit but they are pretty minor.
 
call it the Beep

I was so amped to get this body painted. i used krylon fusion camo paint, that is made for plastics. i took 400grit sandpaper and scuffed the inside of the body and let er rip. its kinda hard to see in the pic, its tan with olive drab on the rag top.
