DIY...I used Black Primer DAP 1698 Dupli-Color Sandable Primer, then Clear DE 1636 Dupli-Color Engine Enamel Ceramic heat tested up to 500 degrees, and then Gloss Black DE1613 Dupli-Color Engine Enamel Ceramic heat tested up to 500 degrees.

I tried to do my tails, but when I was heating them up the plastic started to melt before the adhesive did, so I stopped to prevent any damage.

I'm actually looking for some Evo7 tails, but the MR tails would look nice too.

Why'd you use engine enamel paint instead of the dupli color wheel paint?
