yea i dunno why but on the pictures it comes out lookin a lil orange...doesnt look like that really...im guessing the camera doesnt pic up the metallic and that probably helps with the gold bling effect...man these pics dont quite do justice because i love the metallic in the paint..it almost looks busy like i dunno its moving?

alot of colors look better on black...black is such a base standard color that goes with the whole spectrum...almost the same is true white....but i wanted to be unique..i could of easily threw a gun metal or hyperblack or something that follows the power curve that tried and true always comes out good....but ive done that before on other cars...im still lookin forward to a set of aftermarket this color in the future
