personally i dick around with mixing colors with pearls. just painted my bike supposed to have black. but somehow they gave me the wrong paint can when i picked it up. if you like black cars and you want a lil kick in the light. ad a pearl in it. the color that is on my bike has blue shimmer pearl, rose pearl, and high gloss black. that all mixed up makes a badass color. you get light on it just right and you see a glossy black with blue shimmering all throughout it. my car i did a custom paint. and it is black with blue, silver, red, green pearls in it. just through a 2 stage base clear you can get some badass ****. but if you want to spend some bucks. tri-coat you can get some show quality paintjobs. lemme know if you want help making a custom color. i know how the lambos paint, the vettes, and the cads.

Little to orange for me but looks nice none the less. I'd like it more if it was a little darker.
