cool color. looks really good on the car but..... bad/lazy masking job and you should have taken care of that dent on the right hand rear quarter panel before you sprayed it.

I was thinking the exact samething when I was looking at the pictures, I usually don't like flat paint on cars either but this one really looks nice IMO. Good Job.

cheers guys, erm well we just made up a colour, we got a empty tin, started of with half a liter of mettalic silver, and the bad thing is we did not note down what paints we put in or how much lol.

most of the colours we mixed in were mettalic's.
its funny that the pictures show more silver as when u look at in person its more greeny mettalic.
