My Car **NEW PICS, May 8th!!!**
Question for you guys doing colour changes....
What happens to parts of the car that's not 100% exterior?? i.e. the door jam area, the underside of the hood, underneath the trunk lid, etc. i.e. it would have the original paint???
Are places like that usually painted? I mean, if you were to jump from one normal colour to one radical colour like crazy orange, lime green, sky blue, etc..... Wouldn' it look kinda weird when you open your trunk, door, hood? Having the paint guys pull everything apart/out would be nuts.... Mad labour costs!
Big.... I'm drooling over the front end already, and we can't even see it in full yet... SHOW ME YOUR RACK!

I didn't want a drastic change to a wild colour for a couple reasons
1. I can't afford the labour pulling EVERYTHING apart
2. Its not as clean as a coloour like I've picked. I want something clean but custom.
Thanks for the comments, guys!!!!

The camera does the colour no justice. In some lights the car looks lighter then the regular Satin Silver Metallic... then in other lights, it looks gunmetal, then from certain angles you can see baby blue, purple, and red.
Just take another look at the pic with his front bumper sitting on the rack at the bottom left. The left side of the bumper looks blue.
