Guy here at the body shop mixed up a custom paint HE came up with. It is a tad darker than Electron Blue, but has a little candy in it. He painted a spoiler to put on our showroom with it.
If I EVER get the money to do it, or wreck the car, I'm having him paint it that color. It is freaking bad ***!!

Paint didnt come out too great so back in it went for a SOM and not an Everyday run of the Mill SOM this is a Solar Orange Mettalic.
Its a weird color in the not direct sunlight but light out it looks darker.. At Night it is Brighter..Figure that one out..

Here is how it Started (I bought it like this)..It was Pearl White with Flake and i really like it... But as you can see had body damage and mis-matched color panels

Here's some airbrushing on the underside of the hood, John hadn't pulled his true fire kit lately and was just messing around. I told him he paint whatever he wanted. He painted a few Kandy skulls and a brushed aluminum look in the recesses with 3 dimensional rivets. He said that since he was a little rusty, that we were re-doing the underhood along with spraying the engine bay when I finish my LS2 402 build and we pull my motor.
