This is my Indy entry for WIPR Indy class coming up.
It started out as a black car and I tired to do a fancy x-ring fade in teal, then quickly realized...uh.... I don't know what the heck I'm doing....
So I decided to go back to what I know. It ended up being teal over a black base, with a slight water drop effect then an orange graphic stripe job over top! You can't see much teal in this pic, but it is a dark teal! I cleared it with 3 coats but for the life of me could not get a shine on it! The last coat ended up with some orange peel... yes with lacquer ... hmmm??? I polished it out a little and now it sports a nice "sheen"
These awana axles are a PAIN.... if anyone can tell me what size drill bit to use so these things slide right in I will HUG Ya!
Oh yeah, man do these wheels stink outta the box!
