I realize I'm not the first to do this, but I'm tired of looking at a 1/18th scale diecast model sitting my desk, not matching the color of my real car. It was a pain in the _ss removing some of the peices that were attached with glue. Right now was the perfect opportunity to paint the diecast car because EuroRev is getting ready to paint my new m-tech kit, splitter, spoilers, etc...
