wow ubbu, that looks like a lot of work! nice but a bit wasted due to the paint seepage.
personally, i like to cut the bodyshell before i paint. cuz after you paint and then cut the bodyshell, there's a risk of having the scissors scrap some paint off the shell, especially when cutting around the bends. speaking from experience lol.

i realise the danger of cutting after spraying.. but i use v v small scissors.. and dun cut exactly at d edge.. cut about 2 or 3 mm away.. then use my drill and grind the edges.. gives a v good finish.. quite a lot of work though.. but its all worth it.. btw firemind, its black with matallic red and bright silver..

it's a commendable effort for the paintjob cos the Evo's quite a b**ch to mask from my personal experience..esp the headlights and the intake area...maybe next time u can use at most 2 layers to cover the outline cos u'll never know when you'll encounter spray seepage..but lookin forward to the completed product!
