Mali2ude paint pics
 
I wasn't going to post any pics yet, as the paint has not been color-sanded and buffed, which makes a huge difference. The painter and I decided to do the color sand and buffing in a couple months, after the paint has settled completely. I changed my mind and will post a few pics to give an idea.

The original color I bought was the darker rendering color, Infiniti diamond graphite. But we did a spray out and the color looked off, so I took it back and had then tint it. Then did another spray out and it now looked very metallic(y). So I went with another color I really liked, darker, but very pretty. BMW sparkling graphite is the choice, has a very fine metallic and mica (pearl). Beautiful in the sun, but kinda dark in the shade. I'm still very happy with it and Jim Ramirez (my painter) did an awesome job getting the car straight and color shot. Here's a few pics, will have many more as the car goes back together for Power Tour.

Jody, you should really reconsider your choice of wheels... I really expected more from you.




Obviously kidding! Paint looks sweet. Are you ready to put it back together or are you waiting for other bits and pieces?

Wow Jody that looks awesome! Has a real nice "depth" to it. The body lines really jump with that color. Great choice! -Rob
