Hopefully, but to tell you the truth i have a very special lighting mod to go along with it. I have told a few of you what that is, but i'm gonna keep it a secret until it's finished. For those of you who know what it is, don't let the cat outta the bag, ok.

Ok, so i'm into the painting stage now. I have layered on 2 coats of primer, i'm gonna let that dry overnight, just because i'm tired now, lol, and i'll start layering on like 5 solid coats of paint then 3 or 4 coats of clear coat for the finish. I am not quite sure what way to paint it to be honest guys, right now i'm being lazy and thinking of a simple allover red paint job, but i don't know?

Any suggestions?

Would a jigsaw not work better then a dremel? Just wondering for future projects?

You know, when you first mentioned a jigsaw, the first thing i said was "Jesus, effing Christ, why didn't i think of that", lol.

You know, it would make so much more sense to have used a jigsaw, but then again i did always have a penchant for doing shit the hard way, lol. Ah well maybe next time, lol.

Using a jigsaw on detailed work, like that x for instance, is not a good idea. The jigsaw will stress the plastic too much and will crack it. You might be able to cut a window out using a jigsaw, but I always use a dremel with some heavy duty cutting disks.
