If you do a search thru the forum, you'll find plenty of ideas. Search for the Best Paint and Best Stree/Race competitions.

Go to an office supply store and get some of those things you reinforce the holes in paper for ring binders. Stick them all over the inside of the body in random fashion. Paint the body a dark color. Yank 'em off. Then brush paint them all different colors.

LOL! Paint the main colour white and it would look like Froot Loops.

Yeah... Froot Loops... make the background red like the box... or swirled red and white... the white representing milk.

All this creativity is making my head hurt. ...chuckle...

Hey, does this give anybody any ideas for an innovative way to do the carbon fiber thing?

What we need here is an innovative way to do the waffles thing. The lay-go-my-eggo body! :eek: :confused:

I think some of you guys have been putting something white and powdery that isn't sugar in your Froot Loops ;)

Not me... I don't even like sugar-coated cereals... I'm a raisin bran or honey bunches of oats type guy.

Besides... aspartame gives me migraines... I had no idea what was causing them until a friend told me to type aspartame into a search engine... that stuff is bad news. I stopped using it (diet sodas and instant tea with Nutrisweet in it), and in about a week and a half, I stopped having migraines.
:( :o :( :o :(
That is the white powdery stuff you referred to, isn't it?

WAY off topic, but you are 100% correct. Aspartame is poison!
Stevia and Xylitol are healthly sweeteners though.

Back on topic - Airbrushed waffles would be funny. Someone do it. LOL

I like a checkered pattern painted something besides black and white. I used black and chrome. That what I did on my truck. here's a pic. To much orange on the fade to chrome :rolleyes: I missed up :o

I have an on road car and I was thinking about getting the Stratus body or mazda 6 havent decided yet but the paint scheme is goning to be something like this

a simple black and white but a the first color will be black and that would be on the wing the hood (don't know how to do carbon fiber) something before the rear wheels and somethign black on the roof or maybe a flag or somesort,then the rest will be normal high gloss white and I haven't decided what type of black.

And im choseing black rims.
