undertray black. I finally ran out of paint today, thankfully while spraying the last coat of paint. Since I'm getting closer and closer to final assembly, I thought I'd start some finishing work today.
Here I'll be putting the carbon fiber decals on the inside of the seat

Seat with decals

I brush painted some areas of the car body as well. These heat shields were incredibly difficult to paint by hand, as they were scribed very shallowly out of the engine cowl. I think if I had to do this again, I might buy a scribing tool and scribe this area deeper to make it easier to paint.


I also painted black inside the monocoque

And inside the airbox

Last but not least, I painted the upper wishbones and steering arms black. I really didn't need to get a nice finish on this, as it will be covered by carbon fibers decals anyway, I just wanted to get a base coat of black for any of the areas the decals won't cover
