Yes I understand that Lesley like I said above. But doing so makes it harder for people who actually would prefer to paint all the colours instead of using decals. There are certain areas on the car that I think would benefit from being painted instead of decalled. One such area being the tailgate (red areas) Complex shape and the depression where the number plate fits would be easier if painted. Also the red areas on the rear wheel arches where the 'Abu Dhabi' logo fits and most definitely the complex decal that wraps around the lower rear bumper. Just my thoughts, but I think they would benefit from being painted so that a better finish could be achieved. Very difficult to follow those curves with decals. Nothing follows a curve as well as paint does....
