With Halloween coming up, I thought I'd make a pumpkin Stang instead. :D

Okay, so I need some help.

1) I used Testors One Coat (riiiight) Fiery Orange. I'm guessing this can't be polished out because of the metal flake? Disappointingly, the store was out of the One Coat Wet Clear. I'll try back later. That can be polished correct?

2) I'm thinking of ditching the included spoiler for something snazzier. Any ideas?

3) I want to tint coat the included rims to look more like black chrome. What would be the best way to do this?

4) Stripes or no stripes? Using the included gold metallic decals with the kit.

5) Got something interesting floating around in my head that I don't want to share until I see if it sucks or not. :(

Tamiya Clear Smoke TS-71

I used it on the Civic hatchback, just make sure the glass is free of dust.

I sprayed a set of Traxxas Twin Spokes (molded in off white nylon) for my Stampede with Pactra Window Tint Paint to give them a blacked out look earlier this year, should be possible with either the Pactra or Model Master window tint paint

This is another set to show you how they looked before I painted them

And here's why I did it, I wanted the "Lord Vader" look to the truck B)

2) I'm thinking of ditching the included spoiler for something snazzier. Any ideas? get the 99 eclipse kit it has a good chrome wing in it

3) I want to tint coat the included rims to look more like black chrome. What would be the best way to do this? strip them and hit it with black paint

4) Stripes or no stripes? Using the included gold metallic decals with the kit. black strips if at all
