Kewl idea for a project. I love this car. Pity it only had a short role in the movie.

i love it, why not airbrush blue laquer onto the body instead of decals as i did, that would look sooooo much better, i love the tripple nitrous tanks

i meant the tuner decals....i have the blue for the stripes in spray can...no fade effect though. and the exhaust has to be a bit long to get past the transkit..plus it sticks out a little in the movie. I hope my interio comes out the way i want it to. I had to ..break..the seat just to mask it right...but i guess, sacrifice for quality. And the chassis was left unpainted because i think the grey goes with the silver body. I'll get some more pics up today of the chassis and body and wait to spray the interior.

Agree, metal flakes are too big. For the rest, cool car.

Hey if you want it to be like the movie car do the 4pt blue bar. But that thing was just as useful as if it were a full 14pt cage made from PVC piping. since it bolted to the floor and rested on the rear decklid.

Sounds like you have your work cut out for you, but why no fade effect? That fade was so sweet!!

What do you mean ''fade effect'' the stripes were only on the front bumper from the bottom up to the hood and at the back of the hood they ended.

I hate that movie, only good things were when the Mustang got totalled and the Challenger scares the black guy, also the Camaro.

They went from dark to light or something like that in the movie. And as it went, it got lighter and then started to get thinner. I don't know. Maybe I'm just being dumb, but I could have swore it was something like that.

I loved 2 Fast 2 Furious. That movie was awesome and I'm going to buy it as soon as it comes out, or maybe I'll wait for the special edition. It was way better than the first movie.

i think we have covered this before but there is no "fade" in the blue paint, its a pearl and at some angles looks lighter, and solid from other angles. just use a smooth blue but no need to paint, if you want to dull all your paints give them a coat of satin clear
