    Probably disassemble and strip it clean, then airbrush. That way you'll expose any detail lost to the 1" thick coat of Matchbox paint and can put a nice thin coat on with the airbrush.

    But that's not exactly "the easiest" so I haven't really answered your question...

    I have never spent more than 94¢ for any Matchbox or HotWheels toy. Never ever. However, when I found out that Toyota was finally going to license the 3rd gen 4-door to Hot Wheels, I got excited. And when I found out it was going to be in VooDoo Blue like my pickup truck, I gotta woody. I was looking every single day at every Walmart, Target, Kroger, and Dollar Tree within 20 miles of Denton, Texas and I found nothing. I ended up on ebay and paid sixteen bucks apiece and have no regrets. I gave one to each of my sons, saved two for me (one that sits on the dashboard of my Tacoma and one I will keep unopened), and the remaining five will go to grandkids when the time comes. Seriously, what are the chances of me doing a special order from Mountain Stats Toyota, for a 2020 Tacoma Sport VooDoo Blue in September of 2019, and HotWheels coming out with the same thing in 2022 ? How many guys can say that.........

    Watch YouTube there are directions on how to take the base off using a drill, then tapping it so you can reattach the base. Same with stripping the paint off. I used a metal primer then painted mine with the exact color code paint in a spray can from automotivetouchup.com
    You will have to hand paint the headlights and other details though.
    This is the 2nd gen I did and I had to hand paint the headlights and taillights.

    That is sick. Did it come with all the mini bolt-on or is that custom handiwork?

    That's all custom work I made from styrene. Used brass rod for the sliders, front bumper and rear swings. The wheels are scs f5's I drew up and hard resin 3d printed.

    That's insane. You're insane.

    It looks absolutely stellar.

    Not only has TW turned my brand new perfectly reliable truck into a money pit, but now it's got me eyeing resin printers...

    I really should just delete my account and never look at this site again, my wallet would really appreciate it.
