XJ-220 was a PAIN! Nothing wanted to fit together properly... especially the engine bay. F40 was pretty much the same... but a little easier. 360 wasn't bad at all. I know the headlights on the 360 are supposed to match the body, but I thought it stuck out more and looked neat.

Thanks, I painted all of them except the F40... guess I rushed that one. :-P I usually refuse to unless I get the precut window mask... and being that the two are older, I didn't get that with them.

I mask em like this: cut thin stripes of tape and mask the straight-ish lines, thin is better cause u can adjust it with your fingernails. then for the rough corners i cut the tape by my eye and i get fairly good results. + it only takes like 20mins

It's really not that sparkly in person... check the "ferrari1.jpg" pic for the most accurate picture I could get.

There is something od with the cars I think it has to do with the windows it looks like is melted into the body and you can see the inperfection of it. Then again nice work
