Check page 7-8 for cars manufactured with PPG paint. Even the Acura/CL/TL... Why does the paint quality look different? Hmm...

I didn't get a dark color mainly because of the orange peel. Factory paint is notorious for that and I knew that I wouldn't take the time to get it smooth. The few places on my vic that have it aren't bad so it's not noticiable.
