Pics! Awesome!
What colour did you say you were doing it?

I sprayed my Subaru today and left it to dry in the boiler cupboard! It stank the whole house out! Fortunatley Mum was OK about it!
By the time Dad came home the house smelt of Bolognese sauce!

When you come to paint it in blue I would want to take the rear spoiler off to make it easier to paint.
Trying to paint the spoiler(getting underneath it etc), you may end up with to much paint on the back off the model.

I found its easier to attach it later on after spraying the rest of the model.

Always gotta make me feel like a moron don't you!

we'll see what happens, i'm betting i'm too lazy to take off the spoiler, so i'll just call it a learning experience
