Lowered, Hoppin Hydros rims. I think the paint will be orange with a coat of turn signal amber over it, (gotta test it out to see how it'll look first). :rolleyes:

I know the pics aren't the best, but here's the hood for the lightning. If you look close, you can see a little bit of flake to it, that's just the amber over the orange. I think it looks pretty good, but it's a little brighter than I was hoping for. Guess I'll have to mix my own paint to make it a bit darker.

Nice start on a really nice kit. Maybe a different base under the amber would have darkened it. Maybe an orange base (like Boyd's sunburst).

Actually I used the same technique on a Beretta I'm doing for a buildoff on another forum but with a red base, it looks AWESOME. I might try that out.
