In this long awaited video, I show you all how to customize a 1:18 scale model car. For this demonstration, I'm using a Bburago Ferrari 488 GTB. I paint the wheels black, calipers yellow, and side sills and roof black. To buy this car off Amazon, click here: amzn.to/2xE9OVb U.K Link: amzn.to/2wTiszB I recommend this paint for the wheels: amzn.to/2xE3CfM U.K Link: amzn.to/2wTsW26
i really enjoyed this video. i collect 1:18 for a while now and was wondering how i can customize my diecast. You gave me this amazing tutorial and the confidence to do so. keep up the good work. does any one know how the other people use the putty to make custom lips?
Just a little tip, instead of cutting out little squares for the wheel caps, you can use silly putty - it works really well. Thanks for the video, great tutorial. I might customize my models after seeing this.
This is so amazing 🔥, I had to do the same with bburago Lamborghini murciélargo LP 670-4 SV wheels and head lambs, too bad I didn't take a video. But this is awesome, I'll use your pointers to customise other model cars I'll purchase.
The Windows and the inside part of the door (the plastic part) pop out easily and when the door parts pop out the side mirrors also come out, the Windows pop out extremely easily, it really feels like your going to break it but trust me your not, other wise great video!
what a big surprise I was looking for a video like this....👏👏👏 you can paint all cars depending your mood your feeling 🖒 very good job....Bravo l Artiste ✌👏👏👏
Nice Video! I just bought my first diecast car. It is the 2009 Nissan Skyline GT-R from Bburago. I have a lot of plans on customizing my car but I dont know how remove the steering wheel when I unscrew the chassis. Thanks for this. This is helpful :)
Pro tip buy some 3m blue fine line and when you mask leave a space then use the fine line for your final hard line and after your done clearing pull your fine line while wet and you'll get perfect clean lines. I just adapt the crap I do in a body shop to doing models and it works just the same.
You have inspired me to customize some of my model cars! The first video I watched was the blue Corvette Stingray. Do you have any new projects coming up?
GREAT result! The model looked great from the start, bit looked BEAUTIFUL after! Definitely, a great job and a well deserved like and subscription! Great job! ;)
I customized a car as well it was a red motormax 1958 Plymouth fury and recolored anything gold to silver (not the emblem in the front however) removed the antennas filled the holes gave it a White roof recolored the interior and dash board and gave her a new antenna in the front of the car (that's pretty much a 4 week project summed up)
+Exotic Diecast thanks.Any link to the yellow paint that you use?or where to get it?Oh will be helpful if you can do how to painting on your hwe laferrari wheels
That looks great! Now I want to try it out on my diecast cars. What black spray paint did you use for the rims? Do you have a link to it on Amazon or something? Thank you.

Hey Brandon I need help I have a 1:18 488. I want to repaint it from white to blue.. so do I have to sandpaper then spray paint or do I just paint over the white? Can you please make a vid about this thanks!
please suggest or advice that how do I restore my Maisto 1:18 scale old Audi TT's windscreen and headlights because its been blurred and destroyed due to Pest control spray ! please help !
I recommend removing all the windows before spray painting because if the paint somehow gets on them, you’ll need to buy another car just to swap those windows. Happened to me before and it’s a big hassle. If anyone knows how to remove spray paint from the windows without scratching or damaging the plastic or shine, please share. Nail polish also works great for the calipers.
Dont know if still needed. U can try/use some "sticker remover" to remove paint on places where it dont belong. I used this to remove paint from my real car after some mods I did , I got this tip from an old co-worker who polish cars for living. I am pretty sure this also works on diecast models. *Dont use to much and clean the surface well with some degreaser or window cleaner after removing the paint:)

Very Nice, TOP
Looks dope
Thanks!

Can you do it on the maisto version the parts look exacty the same
How do you cover the Ferrari on the brake caliper?
I just paint over it. Then if you want, you can probably find stickers to put back over it.
Will that work for 1:24 scales too?
today i paint the rims of my bb Laferrari black but when I put the car back together I can not send it anymore. And I do not know if that's the same.
Can you do this project on any 1:18 models?
Diamonds 4 Ever! No

White board.

To bad that you didnt recorded the paint job for the wheels and the roof but looking great!!!
webpage not found. invalid link in description
I love this video, it helps a lot.👍
You should also try to color the interior red or white some other day
That would look awesome, but that might be a challenge
I kinda like this one the way it was. I've painted other interiors before though.
please suggest or advice that how do I restore my Maisto 1:18 scale old Audi TT's windscreen and headlights because its been blurred and destroyed due to Pest control spray ! please help !
use a paint brush dipped in bleach and then another one with paint remover, should work
@cheetahautomotive I will try it in couple of days as I get time ! and Thanks a lot man ! 👍
