Is the car actually like that?? I want real pictures! Also, what kind of paint is good for that? Does it last?

My car is boring and this must be changed!

You can use any paint on any surface, you just need to clear coat it afterwards.

[Animae]

I love that. It is so beautiful.

First, check if your car is made of mettle or plastic. Throw a magnet on it. My family has always used mettle paint that you can get at the hardware store. We did a friends car once and it peeled off a week later because her car was made of plastic. My mom has said that you have to keep in mind that it needs to be "45 mile an hour art". Big paint strokes so that the detail isn't lost while driving down the highway. Be prepared for people to drive in your blind spot. I did both sides and took me two afternoons of maybe a couple hours each.

I've only worked on old cars, which means its always been metal. I'd suggest sanding and primering the car as prep work too. But I also just make stencils because I'm too lazy and lack the confidence to do the work directly onto the vehicle. Fortunately my own taste in car fashion is simple. I like one or two colors. Not that I can't appreciate other styles, and the squid car seems to fit Jennie.

If/when the credit crisis actually starts to abate after Emperor Shrubbie McFuckstick gets sent back to the texas village which has been an idiot short since '00 ... I am thinking about a new car.(*)

Was thinking about a dodge cailber and painting a big black "X" on the hood just to see how long before anyone got the joke.

Some Brits took a Dodge Avenger painted it white (including rims) added some modest body moldings and called it the "Stormtrooper".
