well... the rear fender is almost 2" wider

and that crease is being taken cared of along with the engine bay and front fenders

i just wanted a oem looking pull without the double lip but noticed i have to widen the rear bumper and new front bumper so that is being handled \

Good eye Shane

Velvet, your color looks awesome man, and the whole car is put together really REALLY well, super clean and unique and in my books that's the only way to do it, do things that others haven't done and succeed at it.... I bow down to your car masterpiece because you have achieved exactly that with it.

Now with that said, come on now, you can't really come at my color and say it's not custom. There had been some confusion in the beginning especially with me saying it's Lambo Balloon White, it actually isn't. I originally gave my paint guy the code for Balloon White but it wasn't white enough for me, so I had him knock it up a few shades and mix a hint of black in it....
It's a full blown custom mix of white and pearl and it's why I changed the name to "Cocaine white", and especially when you throw in the fact it's topped off with a satin / semi gloss clear coat, how custom does it get then ?
You wanted to do something unique with purple, that's nice and all but how many purple VQ's have we seen floating around ? easily a handful, now how many 'satin whites' have we seen ?? show me one

now don't take this personally bro, I'm just poking back since I was poked first

all i can say is.... you just shot down, then bombed, then threw a nuke on it hahaha...

my bad i thought that was your color code since it was floating around.. and yes i did notice it was a lot whiter.. even on the lambos i was able to notice it..

and must i say i love that damn color.. i almost did it hahah but the purpleness took over hahaha

Thanx for the kind words man and for clearing things up
