It looks pretty good for a car that has had 5 layers of paint on it. What brand of paint did you use?

Is that a custom spoiler, that looks really nice. You should try to add some underglow.

Yeah i built the spoiler out of tooth picks and a credit card, then painted. I have some pics from when i had the blue underglow on the car but it was a different paint job. I threw the lights away after remodeling the car and now i have no blue lights, i dont think another color would be better.
BUt the 9-volt i used to power the christmas lights did weigh the car down alot. And now i put a tiny wireless camera on it which also requires a 9 volt.

Is the car melted to be lowered, or is that just model glue giving it that ""lumpy" look?

The paint looks nice, it's just the lumpiness...
I didn't think it was paint. Doesn't matter how well you paint. I suck at painting, and I use Sharpies for the black.
