Looks pretty good, but IMHO, doesn't the silver backing, then the black backing make the body heavier for racing? I would have gone with only the white backing.

The black was needed for the door handles behind the windows and the silver gave the blue more pop. I didn’t do heavy black and silver coats, but this isn’t going to be a competition body anyway. Too much work went into it to destroy it on a track. It is going to be a parking lot body.

I will probably do a single color Stratus or Corvette for the track.
