Loooks stunning mate! keep em coming! Is the white paint going to have a hint of pearescent?

 

[carlisle pete]

no mate its going white as white can be! i didnt want a pearl on it as they can start to look a bit dirty as time goes on.. i want it a pure white so its bright as can be!! it hurts ur eyes out in the sun!!

 

[Havok316]

Shes looking sweet mate hope it all comes out well Might use that colour on my bonnet instead of buying a carbon one lol

 

[GlanzaV]

Car looks great in white! I agree with anthrecite wheels too! Should look great when completed!

 

[carlisle pete]

wont be able top use that colour unless you use the same garage mate!! its a custom made anthrasite colour.. totally changes shade wen u look at it even though its not a flip colour!! quite strange really!! but very nice
