Ya sorry bout the double post, i fked up my mod.... Ne way, this color kicks *** too cuz in the shade, its blatant flat gray, but when the sun hits it, its almost white. it stands out and gets your attention without being flashy... seriously, i wouldnt be supprised if this starts a new trend for sleeper cars....

excellent can control, but i dont see this setting any trends.

for 70 dollars i can buy some one step paint from absap and spray it the right way.

Hmmm.Primer Absorbs water, water freezes inside the primer and cracks it, not to mention it will help rust the hsit out of any place that had exposed metal, wait a year, your car will look like ----. but good job I guess, you should of at least painted it with paint and then a coat of clear or dull coat to seal the finish.
