Click for bigger (84 kb)

pink n chrome lots of lovley chrome, the bare metal foil bought from a local model shop is the mutts nuts, dead easy to apply but you need to have a supply of realy sharp blades to cut the stuff.
just cut a peice a little bigger than you need cover the area, burnish into the corners and polish with an old bit of t shirt.
then its just a case of trimming and lifting off the exess with a sharp blade.

Looking dead great. Bare metal foil? Sounds brill. Is that similar to silver leaf? Or is it thicker if you can say?
