So, I was bidding on a diecast model (fooled you for a minute, didn't I) GT-4 Celica, but the bid was going to end at 5AM, so I asked Daniel if he is going to be awake and wants to snatch it, if I get outbid. Long story short, we got chatting about this and that, got to know each other better and he decided he wants to send the GT-4 as a gift since he won it.

Thank you, Daniel for the awesome gift, I'll return the favor!







And I got another package in the mail too, "Castrol Toyota Celica #1 Rally Car"



I think I will modify the black one as an alarm remote/keychain and the Castrol one will sit on my desk.

I don't know if I can get all the rally decals off of mine but if I can, I'd only need to paint the roof. But it's so small and since it isn't flat, I can see where spray paint might be very difficult.

It's not decals, but paint. But it might be layered on top of the white. Maybe try to get them off with paint thinner, start with somewhere small, or the roof since it's getting painted.
