Now that the new camera works I took a few pics of the camaro Im trying to do up like my real one. I made my own headers for this out of the parts tree so there not the greatest but you get the idea of what I was after. I also wasnt able to do a couple things on the model the same as the real car but its close enuff I think. I tossed the Nismo in just so everyone can get a good size comparrison on this thing, its huge man. I also used the same paint on the model as I did on the real car, that is PPG 2004 PT Cruiser dark slate grey or a 2004 Mustang Smoke grey metallic. I shoot it with my airbrush and didnt have any problems as you can see. I will update some more of the interior as soon as I get the screen and subs done. Let me know what you think...

you should really use the IMG links and post your pics direct but other than that awsome paint man looks exact to your car!

Not quite sure about that, never thought of it. I just knew I had to get it and go for, Ill figure that one out later. I do have plans on putting in some small led's for headlights, tailights, and maybe even dash lights for this one since its big enuff. Heres a few interior pics also...

First of all, nice building! And now for the ugly:I see orangepeel in your paintwork,try using 1:1 automotive polishes/rubbing . It will look soo much better then!! ( using polishcloths on a 1:8 is probably timeconsuming, to say the least :) )
