Re: new paint
I think I know what you mean by pictures don't get it right. It must change color as the angle from where you are looking changes. A friend had a snowmobile with that type of paint on it. It was stolen up in Quebec though.Lorna c wrote: Mon Jun 04, 2018 2:15 am I love this paint , it's all even and set and the color is just awesome . pictures still don't get it right . . boy it's fun and good-looking . compliments the roadster nicely . . .

I'm hoping nobody elce would want this . haha no, kidding . but I am hoping they know they'd stick out even more than it just a roadster , but a blurple roadster and not want that if they stole it . so they don't .. haha ya know . it's sick tho . I like the satin finish on this paint way better than gloss . it adds a touch of class , not just "different" .. if that makes sense ..

Re: new paint
the other picture has an extra color or 2 but you can see the gloss vs satin finish difference ..

Re: new paint
Was this car at the recent Slovange? I saw a funky purple car the with glitter in the paint. Fender bullets mirrors too!
There couldnt be possibly two roadster with the same paint scheme. I really liked it!
