Whilst on the topic.......I've still got some left over passion red and pyrenees black paint left over from the actual car. Do you think this would adhere to the plastic well? Or will I need to prime it? Will the primer even adhere to the plastic?

That one's a custom Fujimi 1/24 model. You can't get a plastic model of a facelift FTO.

KATO was the only company that made a facelift diecast model but it was tiny.

I've got a spare Fujimi sitting on the shelf if you're interested though.

Same principle as any plastic model. Undercoat it first with black or white paint.

Yeah, I think ive got them all except for the one with anime girls all over it (ive got 4 kits + the KATO diecast model). Spectacular attention to detail on the custom one. I wonder how he made the wing?
