My question is why? I love glow in the dark paint, my little brother has a whole galaxy of stars on his ceiling in glow in the dark paint and it looks awesome! But on a car stick a normal two-stage or maybe a pearl. Someone on here has an absolutley gorgeous pearl gray camaro, I think that it was a Viper color.

I hope this doesn't become the next trend. If so, we will have officially brought the silly, gay neon disco fiasco of Batman Forever to real life. Next will be some Batmobile hubcaps that don't rotate while the car is in motion.
