If you want to paint your car in a impreza color you must buy TS-50 from tamiya thats THE impreza color!

i taught it was already sprayed blue...
i fell dumb..... so i guess i cant leave it that color so to go ablut spraying it yellow i should buy some primer (white) and put like 3 coats of primer and do a light sanding then go ahead and spray the yellow paint... is this the way to go about doing this? thanks 1

As long as there aren't any color swirls in the plastic,you can polish it and it will look nice.
But it will look plastic-y and not like a real car shrunk down, more like a toy car.. |
