Finised
 

this is the result of prolly 5 days of work i love it

:) How do you take the paint off?

angle

I took the paint off my car with rubbing alcohol and Q-Tips! It works awesome.

I used rubbing alcohol i just soaked it and took a Q-tip to rub it off

In my not so humble opinion.....the side looks the best. And, I don't like s2000's very much, because they are usually quite ugly with some paint jobs, but you made this one look awesome! :D

BTW, does the paint weigh your car down at all?

so wut do u guys think?

umm i don't know it's not that heavy lol

Hey xXx_Vegito_xXx,

Nice job. It's a little dark for me, but it's your car! :p Now let's see it on the chassis!

:confused: I'm a little confused...
I'm trying to understand what you did.

You painted your car red first and let that dry. Then you painted black over the red. Then you took some of the black off with the Q-tip & alcohol. Is that right?

the car is the same as it was before except that the paint. i just taped them off if i were to use rubbing alcohol it would have taken all the paint off but yeah

Ok, now I get why you put 4 coats of red paint on! :D

lol yup i didn't yet all the paint off so yeah

nice job..also that pic under u name(avator)is not vegito..that is gohan....(i tihnk..ive seen that pic somehwere before)

:confused:To BTW What type of paint did u use?? acrylics?? i dont know what type to get. did u need to use a grey primer?

Thanx

i know that is gohan it;s from my website and i used testors model paint. i tried to used a primer but the whit i have wus old and it just didn't work and thats y i put so many caots of red on.
and i don't know if u know but this is my first paint job ever pretty good hey

That's...... different.

Drive WRX, if you havent sent that evo out yet can you paint it like you did your one, i'll pay you, that is sweeeeeeeet. i love it, i may have to do that to mine if i could do it that well.
have you ever collected another hobby which required such fine painting, i used to collect warhammer so im kinda ok at detail and stuff but your cars are both soo damn good

Too late...
 

Man Shypo,

Sorry, the EVO's already on it's way! :D

Thanks for the kind words, though. Yeah, I used to build model cars (mostly race). I entered local model contests too. I won Best Detail of Show once! :cool:
So, that's where I get my painting skills...

I'm painting another EVO this weekend. It's going to be Yellow/Silver (different than my Red/Silver one).

I'll post pics when I'm done. Hopefully sometime this week.

Meanwhile, check out my Red/Silver EVO with 5-spoke wheels! :D

Back side
 

Another view...

GODDAM, (drops dead)
that is soo damn good, where'd you get the rims from??

thats cool thanks anyway man, your is in the post aswell

I got them off a Nakamichi N Racer. Very hard to find now! :(

All I did was swap out the fronts (knuckles and all). I had to narrow the rear axle a little to get it to work on the Bit chassis. I used Stock Bit tires 'cause the N Racer's sucked.

Easy! :D :D :D

yea nice rims...but the paint aint that good...the back bumper has some missing spots...but good job other then that...

WTF! THAT IS THE BEST PAINT JOB I HAVE SEEN YET!

Yea, thats actually pretty good. At least better then i can do lol :rolleyes:

best paint job uve ever seen?all it is,is silver with red bumpers...that is easy to do...al u need is to paint the whole car silver with spray paint then get a thin brush and paint the bumpers...and there u go...easy or what?

dude i'd like to c u do better or just as good as Drive's. his paintjob is sweet

Let's all remember, the car is the length of a key! For the size of the vehicle is has very few errors and is VERY impressive. Good job DriveWRX!

Who cares how he did it! It looks awesome, that's all that matters.
