Got this Camaro body as part of a VTA parts lot in the "For Sale" thread...it was new, but trimmed and painted yellow w/no decals. I think it finished out nicely. Basic, but cool. It's my "Bitchin' Camaro". (we'll see who is old here lol)

The black on the hood is on the outside and it's Tamiya Black (that's what I had on the shelf). It's glossier than the typical hood blackout, but it still looks good.

After I took this pic I came up with a little trick that everyone probably does. After I applied the side window decals I carefully cut around the edge of the "glass" with an x-acto knife and peeled that part off, leaving just the trim. Looked much better.
