I looked at it and got some samples done
It’s nice but in the end I felt a deep solid red suited the car much better

Here are a couple more candied red I tried and didn’t go with
Right is Cadillac obsession Red and left a candied version of the same color

I really like this paint! It is what I plan on using. But I hope I can some way to get some durability on it, otherwise both Toyota and Nissan have similar reds.
