Looks good. I just got my Yokomo 180sx this past Tuesday. I'm still thinking of what color i want to paint it. Are you going to drift this RC? I'm new to this hobby. I'm usually building the 1/24s. Are there other alternatives to paints besides Patra and Tamiya?

hey,

im also new to RC cars..i dont even have my car yet;) wednsday my friend comes back from japan with it.. about paintings..i have no idea whats there..but i also have an airbrush, so i could use other colors..

im also going to drift my rc car..i'll use a 11t engine and some other good parts (very fast and strong servo, speedcontrol for brushed and bushless engines etc..)

new pics..I also have a yokomo 180sx..gonna make it orange with black top

Looking good so far. I especially like how those lights look. Do they work?

I'm thinking of doing my 180 a racing red. I was also thinking of painting a carbon fiber pattern on the hood but now i'm having second thoughts and just doing it all red. Have you gotten started on it yet? I'm going to buy a working set of lights for it so i'm holding on the paint job until I get the light bucket set to see where they'll go and what areas I should mask. I'd like to see the turn-out of your 180.
