Car is racing blue so might go similar . Red at mo but looks odd with white wheels

I used one of those attachements for the drill, were a godsend, although my hands were still in bits by the end.

Mine had been done previously black and red, paint remover took some of the paint off , as did the drill attachement in the nooks and crannys, but i ended up resorting to a stanley blade to chip all the old paint off, worked but took me AGES
