It doesn't have a name. The painter and I came up a mixture of House of Kolor's True Blue and some metallic silver paint. I forget what the silver paint was called. We'll call it fergymoto special LOL

ls1jorge, color looks awesome, but you need to fix that popped out front fender on the drivers side, those damn "Don't jack on this" clips seem to get ignored

If anybody decides to jump on this, words to the wise, Larry is a crochity bitter old man who has no home life...and he supplements that void with your pockets. Once you bust him on his numbers game, and expose his "I see too....you confused" trash, then you're ready grasshopper. Bertram will sprout demon wings as smiles fade. makes for a fun experience...just trying to give a heads up for thos who'd like to try.

It's at 785 Riverview Rd, off Cherry Rd. Right down past the McDonalds and some hotels. Should be done by Friday. I'd like to ride down a couple times throughout the week, but being up in Charlotte it uses some fuel

I never planned on changing the color but I had a chance to trade a '97 Z28 that I had almost nothing into for the paint job, so it happened.

Yours looks good man. Just a little darker than what I want mine to be. I'm looking for a happy medium somewhere between Jetstream and Electron

Default jetstream

Jetstream is a beautiful color, its best seen in person. Did mine about 6 months ago with slate gray metallic stripes and nose bird.

Ill try to get some better sunlight pics, Let me scrounge around and see if I can find some
(edit:found some show pictures hope they help.)

It looks really dark. Did you do it over a darker basecoat?

it was shot over a standard gray primer sealer base, the amount of coats of this paint affects the shade greatly as does the amount of clear. My lighting conditions and cell phone pictures probably dont assist much either.

Yeah it looks totally different in that picture. I went with my own mix of blue instead of Jetstream so we'll see how it turns out. I'm hoping to have it back maybe by the end of the week.
