bit much for me to be paying, that's why i'm doing it myself with a compressor

dwcars1.4 - there is a place near mine that can make up paints from the codes, so i'm getting it from them

do you want them smooth? or with the nobbly effect? i had to use hi-build primer and alot of sanding to get mine smoothed.

also the arches will 100% re-act due to all the cylicon on the arches.

wape them dwn usig spite wipe before you start.
