Ahhh....got it. Yea that's the reflection off the white washed building in the back ground. I agree it does sort of look strange if you don't know that. Yes, it's PPG BBY, 6 coats, completely DI'd, wet sanded starting with 2000 grit, all the way down, and waxed with Pinnacle Carnauba. The paint was worked over for 3 days and nearly 17 hours to make sure it was mirror gloss and dead flat with no swirls or orange peel. The finish is MASSIVELY better than factory.

Man I love the car, you did a really good job on it, impressive mods lists. I have to say you have to have one of the nicest evo I have seen, you have the go and show in one package. Very nice car, must be a blast to drive.
