Hi Vyger, could you spay the Tamiya paint on black wheel rims to get chrome rims effect?
Thanks.
Thanks.

I got the body cut out and shot some paint on the McLaren this weekend. Here’s some pics pre-stickered so you can see how the body looks. I like the shape and there’s a crap load of detail…there’s just a lot of parts to it. All in all it’s good tradeoff. The parts aren’t fastened yet in the pics, so the alignment isn’t exactly perfect.
It was also my first time using this type of paint. It goes on really transparent, even after three coats as suggested in the instructions. Then you hit it with the black and BAMM! It’s like a mirror. I still have to apply the paint to the rear wing side plates, mirrors, and the side splitters. I would suggest getting two cans if you plan to paint it as instructed.

does the body kit have a shark fin option like the f60?

Yes and no. The McLaren has two pieces you have to use to make the intake look complete/finished. However, they aren't as big as the Ferrari F60's, so if you're looking to make this seasons car with the stock parts it won’t work. I'm not sure if the F60 parts would mount/fit but it might be worth taking a look at. I hope this answers your question.

Wondering if Tamiya makes a spray chrome paint? At the local hobbyshop, there is a chrome paint from Alclad brand and it needs to be airbrushed.
