Slade....I sware that is the same colour as mine!!! Especially with that blue/purple thing going on. It sure will be interesting seeing them side by side in the summer and checking out the difference in colour.

Good stuff man.

I think a little photochop does wonders...

Long beach blue pearl is not a photo friendly color...

This is pretty close to what it looks like in person.

It has one in the spoiler and on the roof...

even with all them red lights flashing stop you'd think that'd be enough to get the attention of drivers to NOT ram you in the rear...

The lighting in that gas station will be mercury or sodium vapour or something like that and it screws up the colour in the picture. Even if you use a filter it never looks right with that type of light source.

Looks like they did a nice job on it though.

Also, should'nt you wait a bit before driving it daily this crap weather - might still be soft.

I agree. Even just a $200 beater Civic for the winter would be better than seeing your paint get tiny scratches daily.

Looks good, BTW!

I have 2 sets of rims
15 inch American Racing rims with BFG Winter Slalom tires
16 inch IROC-Z rims with BFG GeForce KDWS tires

Paint is found on Acura NSX cars only.. high quality stuff, not cheap paint at all...

The car was baked, so its not soft by any means and its already had 6 days of storage after the baking...

I'm not getting a new spoiler.

I'm not going TPI... have nightmares of changing the fuel pump once...

Thanks for the compliments, but this is work that I can't credit to myself really... the real paint master who did this is a true genius when it comes to mixing formulas...

Looks good. Where did you get it done? And don't listen to them. Keep the IROC wheels. I love them.
