I've seen a couple of pictures of people with wings on their cars that look milky but aren't painted.
Anyone know how to do this???
What you need is like a scotch pad and you just rub it till it goes cloudy.

My Durga looked that way while the overspray film was still on the wing... Now it's painted I like it better painted though.

ther milky effect is done using eniry cloth or fine sand paper and it looks good plus its easier than painting replacment wings all the time but as big red said use the right paint & it wont come off :thumbsup:
Which paint is durable?
I like Faskolor since it's water based. But it sure isn't scratch resistant!
For window tinting I use Tamiya smoke (spray can), which works excellent. But I've seen others with tinting in other colours - what are those? (brands/colour/webshop please)
Tamiya Smoke might work on the wing... it's quite scratch resistant also...
And Taateego supply a pre-smoked wing don't they?

A fully silver shell would be cool. I always like Mark Paice's shell design, ought to be done with chrome. ;) (with Jiz wing ofcause)
