Yeah, you have to remember that candy paint changes dramatically in different lighting.

candy paint looks dope, but its very expensive, must be painted by a experianced painter for good results and hard to match if you have to repaint a panel but if i had a show car i would debate it for sure

you can make Candies different shades. every coat makes a difference, and thats why its so hard to blend in repairs.

It also depends on what base you use. I believe you can do the candy apple over a gold or silver. I know my tangerine was done over a metalic silver and it would have looked more bronze if I had decided to go with gold.
