Custom paint and color changing cf
Well im a painter at a dealership so I wanted somthing new for a color. I went with PPG's "Blue-to-Red" I looked at a lot of colors and thought about Chameleon Paint but it all ways looks "green to purple" and thats not what I wanted. I was thinking blue or red and doing some cf and black wheels. So when my rep called me and said "we just got some blue-to-red in" I bought some to try out and loved it. Let me know what you guys think
Oh and I moulded on my grill to the bumer, shaved the side marker lights and cut the oem bumper in half and droped it 2"(still putting a small lip) cut out the oem grills and put my own in, and moulded the rear sport mud flaps on the rear bumper

Ok and now we have the door and trunk jambs painted so I can put the car back together
Here is the cf parts, I put them on and new they had to be different some how. So I was thinking this paint has to be sprayed over black to work. But cf is different shdes of gray, so only the dark squars would change (in theory) So I started by masking of part of the trunk were I wanted it to be solid color and the rest of the cf I want to see, but have a hint of blue or red.
Sanded down and washed.
Then I gave all of it three "light coats" to give it the hint of color.
befor and after with the hood
