Planning on getting one. Have Vintage Plum Pearl right now, want a blue. Either something REALLY bright, or something really Deep and Dark. I'm doing all my accents and body graphics in white, so the blue should set it off something VICIOUS!

Well My car got painted about a week ago and is going to get repainted as soon as I finish my bodykit. My car was Inca Pearl, but now it is inca pearl with about 5 coats of gold pearl. Soon the car will have flames in blue pearl!!

I've been toying with the idea of doing a two-tone using my factory paint as a base with House of Kolors' Cobalt Kandy (a blue) on the top half of the car. Then probably some graphics - maybe some tribal flames in Tangelo Pearl (an orange) to break it up. Not really too sure if I'll acually do it though, aftermarket paint doesnt hold up as well as factory. And Kandy's pretty hard to touch up if anything were to happen, or even rock chips for that matter.

My car wants to get dressed in orange/red flames, but it's not ready yet.
I'm debating on whether or not I should do it, because you guys know about the value thing.

ooh, ooh, ooh! do it!!! do it!!! that would be so fresh!!! thats what I WAS gonna do.

paint jobs can run you from 2500 to 8000 depends on how thorough of a job is done, how old the car is, type of paint etc
