for a color change like this, it would be more than $4000, give or take I paid $1200 for all of my materials and paint + a new alarm.
Nope, it is Sonic blue (a good formula, with no weird purple or green it it. there is a small amount of red pearl, which gives ti a slight purple look @ some angles though)

Can't get over how much I love this color. I wanna go something very similar, paint brand, color name/code/mix? I'm gonna go a bit darker thou on my WS6. That emblem and fill in look real good, this is my favorite looking Camaro! IMO those wheels look fine on the car, a polished C5 ZO6 wheel looks good also which is the route I'll be going. If you change wheels what are you looking into?

The paint is Shermin Williams brand Sonic Blue (03-10 Ford). They make a few different lines of paint, and I used to top of the line Ultra 7000 for my basecoat. The color code is SN, and then you just have to pick which alternate you want.
It is the large can on the left of the picture.

I love that shade of blue it looks killer on your car.
Im going to paint my 85' chevy truck soon, and the only thing Ive ever sprayed is single stage. If Im looking for a decent two stage paint, but nothing TOO pricey what do you recommend? Id like to have about $1000 into paint, supplies, clear if possible. Im trying to go with a Sunburst/Sunset/Atomic Orange.
