Gold??? Purple?? Black??? blah blah I havent seen it in the flesh but the cook tells me that it changes color every which way you look at it and even more so outside in the sun and the shade.Could be a hard one to match for the panel beater maybe?? then again if its so many different colors the crash repair should blend in just dandy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobrav8 Member 1,969 Member For: 19y 11m 23d Gender: Male Location: New Zealand Posted 12/09/05 04:07 AM Share Posted 12/09/05 04:07 AM There are a few ricers around in NZ with this paint (well - similar) and it is interesting how it changes, but it never really looks like a colour, always a bit brown, bit red, bit blue - I dont think the effect is as good as it sounds.My suggestion - look at a car - and see if you like it.I like my Shockwave - wouldnt trade it for anything.

They can have it.Like CobraV8 says though, best to have a squiz at a car in the flesh. It may be a diff. story there.Haha, I just had a thought. Suppose you see it and think "ah, they're all full of sh*t; it looks GREAT". Then you get it home, and think "OMG, bloody thing's gone off!".Or say your friends come around to see the new ride you just got. You proudly open the garage door, and then panic as you realise its not being viewed from the correct, or 'good' angle. "Uh, hang on guys, lemme just shift it into some better light" I think I'll just stick with old-skool dark grey/silver. meh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then again that was on a euro exotic, which would have looked awesome in just about any colour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweeeet That is the green colour I would have liked on my T when I bought it. I had to settle with the next best thing, Citric Acid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
