Not bad. I would recommended a matt shine paint on interior bits. Also, what program did you use to create video?

Thank you [KRAFTIG] for recommendations! I use Vegas Pro 15 for editing videos :)

My first customized car was oldschool VW Beetle 1:18 by Road Signature and i convert it it to matte black hot rod.

I was inspired by seeing this real Beetle in the internet:
