Hot Wheels Honda Civic

other:

To make this custom Hot Wheels Honda Civic hatchback, I first disassembled the car, stripped and cleaned the body, laid a coat primer and for color I used this automotive dark green metallic. After a layer of automotive urethane clearcoat, I added various details with chrome foil and/or paint hand painted all the graphics including the word "Honda" in the katakana form of japanese writing on either side all covered with a couple coats of clear, wet sanding in between coats until it was smooth. I also changed the wheels to these Dub City six-spokes and they will spin freely but the car doesn't roll good.
