Having looked your car, I realise my painting is so poor.
I only use Tamiya rattle cans for polycarbonate. The 'fade' effect is not that difficult to acheive and does not require masking except the windows. Always start with the light colours first. Over time you get better. Some of my early attempts (1990) were shockers! As with driving the R/C's, when painting, practice is everything.
