I like that paint - I saw another car (Integra) with the lighter version (kind of silver/blue/green) of that paint. It looked awesome. I am waiting a couple more years to put a few coats of candy silver over my BBY then clear-coat it. Should look sweet.

i guess you guys don't know jack about showing cars.... that paint job is flawless and could win shows on just that... just cause you don't like what he did, doesn't mean to have to DIS. his car.... It is his car and he put the time and money into making it a show car... If your not into the scene then keep moving on... No reason 2 B bashing others..... Just keep your comments to your self if you don't like it.... Remember it is his car not yours

2 words... PAINT PROTECTANT..

and the body shop bill came to $7456.65. that included under trunk, door jambs, hood, engine bay, everywhere. the only way to know the car was black is to rip out the stereo and look at the bottom of the trunk. also if you notice the difference on the new paint, i did all the trim around the windows. all the rubber pieces and everything were all impregnated with paint to not chip or anything. very slick look.
