Step 48

	To dress the car to my liking I used paper decals I made myself on the computer that I will put to the inside of the body using XXXMAIN lexan picture glue. You can also use any other paper graphic you made your self or taken from a flashy magazine.
	Cut out the paper decals.
	Clean the inside of the body with soap water and dry it with a paper towel. Glue the decals inside the body with the XXXMAIN lexan paper glue. More about how to use this lexan picture glue click here. This is the left side view of the car with the custom made decals.
	This is the right side view of the car with the custom made internal decals.
	This is the front view of the car with the custom made internal decals.
	This is the inside view side of the car with the custom made intarnal decals. Check before painting if the window mask decals are still good bonded to the inside of the body by pressing them firmly especially at the edges!
	I opted to make the best of it using white paint as inside and final fuel proof cover color. Take the paint spray bottle or an airbrush gun and apply the color you like in 5 thin layers making a cross pattern at 15 centimeters distance. Let each layer dry until the paint is just picking when you touch it, then spray the next layer. Apply a fuel proof cover coating if you are using water based paint and let it dry 24 hours.

	Peel of the cover film.
	Take a lexan scissor or high speed dremel tool and cut the body along the edges that are pressed in the body.
	Also cut the holes for the fuel tank, engine and the antenna along the edges that are pressed in the body.
	Here you see the hole for the antenna.
	Drill the 8 mm hole for the rear body post 4 mm to the rear. The point molded in the body is placed 4 mm to much forward.
	Drill the hole for the front body post with a 8 mm drill. I find the hole to much on a spot where it weakens the strength of the front part of the body. If the body post was 15 mm placed more to the rear of the car there was more material for keeping the strength in the front part of the body.
	Drill a 2.5 mm hole at the red marked spot.
	Drill a 2.5 mm hole at the red marked spot.
	Take the spoiler and drill on the molded marked spots at the rear of the spoiler two 7 mm holes.
	It would be nice if the body post was 15 mm placed more to the rear of the car. There is more material for keeping the strength in the front part of the body.
