They don't make a Power Wheels in Laguna blue one so I made one for Santa. Took a week to do a complete repaint and paint the wheels.
The paint was Krylon fusion for plastic and the color was safety blue. I added a mist of blue metal flake paint I bought at Pep Boys to give it some metallic and then added Krylon Fusion clear. The color is pretty close if you wanted to paint some plastic stuff yourself.

Thanks everyone. It's nice to hear that there are other dads on here that don't think I'm nuts. When my daughter told the mall Santa that she wanted a Stingray, he was confused. When she got off his lap, Santa called over my wife and told her what my daughter said and then said "good luck". I have only had my car 2 months and I couldn't be more prouder of her. We had no idea that it is influencing her this much. She gets so excited to ride in it.
