Wow, that transformation is incredible! I've heard of using it but have never seen the results, I'll likely look into doing that as my tank seems to be in a little bit better condition than the one in pics.

So far, the only orange I'm picturing on the outside of the car would be the headlight inserts and logo on the hubcaps. I don't know what I'm doing at the back yet. I may try the pope's nose and tail light mounts but I'm not sure on it.
