I am going to end up repainting the MX-3 and although painting it all white would be preferred, I have an issue. I can not find any white bumpers, rather all I can find are red. While I can get the flexible paint for the bumpers, I'd rather not paint them unless I have to. With that in mind, what is everyones thoughts on an idea a friend of mine had for it:

Following the body line, paint the bottom part of the car red and reshoot the rest of the car white.

Let me know and thanks,


Chris

I'm not a fan of red and white cars in general. The flex paint it not hard to shoot. (not any harder to shoot than the regular paint) It is a bit more work to measure it out and mix it, but no more than a few minutes work. I also suggest you paint the bumpers so that the whole car gets a fresh coat. Trust me you will be much happier than the top half looking awesome nad new and the bottom half being a dull old white.
