    Well, that's a different color scheme...

    To make it more racy for the time attack and protecting the original paint, I put some Halo EFX (like plasti dip) on the car.

    Ballsy...I'd be scared I'd damage the underlying paint when removing that when I was done needing it. Pretty cool looking though...

    Looks cool, any pics of the car without the plasti dip on it? Toxic orange ACR has to be pretty rare

    Love the Toxic Orange ACRS!

    Looks amazing. And also, looking at the product chart, appears to be 1 of 1 built. In Toxic Orange with no stripes.

    The most time consuming was taping everything of. With each spray, especially the white coat (8 layers), I had to put a new tape over the plastic foil. If you let the dip dry on the tape, you will not only pull the tape away, but also the dip.

    I get my wheels back tomorrow, so the car can get out of the garage.
    Will post some pics then.

    What's going on with those tires? They look very odd?

    The wheels are very wide. I ordered smaller outer rings (BBS 3 pcs), but they have not been delivered yet.

    So was all this done with rattle cans? If so how many cans did it take?

    No, I used a simple paint sprayer.

    Bought ready to spray paint.
    1 gallon black
    1 gallon red
    2 gallon white

    The small stripes are vinyl.

    I was going to say that was a very good job if you had done it with cans

    I have seen Rattle cans for sale in the UK, But not the paint in gallon tins

    Are more graphics going on the car?

    I will put some graphics on fenders, quarterpanels and rear bumper. Shields with start number and adds from Time Attack on the doors.
