    Vtec & Ryan!!!

    ryan pls look at the how to section at my detail description on how to paint em and how many coats to use and what to use! This will give you a professional look to it. And no they will not flash orange they will flash red. Look at pic below

    Vtec, it is Testors transparent candy apple red.
    It is found mainly at the hobby store but if they dont have it tel em to order it and if they cant then tell me and maybe I can buy and sell some to you!
