As much as I like a white coupe, it almost seems a shame to paint it white after all the effort you’ve gone to.
I agree, can't really appreciate the body work on white like you would on darker color vehicles, and believe me I spent months debating colors.
My first choice would be my all time favorite color Lighning Silver Metallic off an Aston Martin, it has a gorgeous bluish tint to it with a very fine gold type of pearl and silver flakes
The problem, aside from being a very difficult and laborious color to spray, (car has to be sprayed all at once + many many layers) .... If I ever got a scratch or ding that needed resprayed on a door or fender for example, You have to respray the entire side of the car and u only get one shot to get all the layers right because the color is translucent, otherwise start over.
Didn't really care for any other color, but I do love how the coupe looks in Alpine white, but a brighter shade, and is also very easy to fix, if I ever have to repair I can do a panel without having to blend, so it came down to a matter of less headache for me
Glad we don`t have those rear reflectors over here . Loving the black roof
