Default Red Ep3

Does a red car fade faster then a black car? I finally painted my car.

wow that red looks good man. nice job. i think the red color will be easier to maintain than the black. black shows too much imperfections when not taken car of. is that milano red btw??

yeah i have to agree with the above, red is easier to take care of, black shows every kind of imperfection there is. im sure it wont fade if you take care of the paint job, like wax it every once in a while. your paint job looks great! not sure about those coloured rims, but thats just my unimportant opinion.

red oxidizes faster than any other color
it needs almost as much special treatment as a black car.

from the pictures it came out really clean who painted it ?
