it is a twist off of Hugger orange with a tricoat pearl so it has a little color flip to it.
I have a few things at the shop to get caught up on then it will get some video posted.
I'll keep you posted.

I think I need to figure out how to do this to my 4th gen. I already have it stripped down to the frame as it is, just gotta figure out how to make everything fit. Would be nice to be the 1st "garage built AWD Camaro"
