Getting started on decals for this puppy. Have the Dodge GTS Viper Blue and the pearl white we used on the car matched just about dead on. Decanted some of the "officially licensed" Dodge Testors Lacquer, and the one coat laquer called "White Lightning". I'm giddy seeing the blue sitting in the bottle. It flakes in light just like this car did. Step 1 is, as always, the decals. Using one of my junker bodies that I use for this kind of thing, I printed some black decals on laser decal paper to emulate what would be printed in white on an Alps. The halftones came out GREAT. I wasn't sure they would print well at a small scale but they sure did. Need to now fit the sidepod halftones (I just used a square and cut to the contour) in Illustrator and the hard part, honestly, is done! So, question for the experts -- is there a Greenlight that has the black OZ rims, but a full carbon underwing? The 2014 Munoz car looks like a perfect candidate. Will ELO be safe to take off the CINSAY art, or will it begin to take the white with it?

I've had some succes removing tampo from the body. Tried on a bumper and the paint came right off too.

10-4 chrome
Would be pretty damn easy to make a white decal to go right over that sucker, and keep the perfect masking since the Fuzzy's car has the identical underwing.
