I also tried the Bright Mica Red and Metallic Red over the black primer and the two brighter shades just didn't pop like the regular Mica Red. Be sure to let us know what model you try it on! I want to put it on something else but I'm not sure what yet.

Good evening guys, I've gotten a couple models finished after a crazy busy summer. Here is a '64 Impala I finished last week.
- Looks great! *NM*
- Nice build! The LS looks like it was meant to be there! *NM*
- I agree!! *NM*
- The wheel/tire combination and the slight rake gives it just the right attitude. The headlight treatment improves the front end as well. Nicely done. *NM*
- First thing I noticed! it's pretty easy to drill out those bug-eyed headlamps, and it makes a huge difference.
  - Thanks Dave! I'm finding myself doing that more often as long as I don't feel too lazy! lol *NM*
- Nice build, nice color, who's is it? Thanks. *NM*
- Thanks guys! Jim, the color is Tamiya Mica Red over black primer with Duplicolor 1K Clear. *NM*
  - OK, thanks, gotta try it on something! *NM*
