Well all I can say is it may be necessay to upgrade your modeling skills.The body appears to be brush-painted and the chrome trim defintely is!First you should practice with rattle-cans(Spray paint) or better yet get an airbrush.You should also look to buy some Bare-metal foil for the chrome.Easy to use and does a great job!You do have some interesting ideas, you just need to learn to execute them better!
