Welcome to the gang.
GFM is kinda popular. One day I saw 3 GFM Lexus within a block of each other, with mine there were 4. Two were IS but that's a lot of GFM in one block.

I'm surprised you would say this...having a GFM yourself. It all depends on the angle of the sun when the pic is taken. Mine looks white sometimes in pics. But I've learned about those sun exposed angles and I try to avoid them. Here's one I took just for the contrast. Looks white to me.



That's the beauty of GFM, it changes colors. Depending on the light it changes from light blue to gray/silver to white-ish...with a pearl shine. Really cool. Try looking at it with some high quality polarized sunglasses, it really pops!

yeah, i hear ya. believe me.....ive taken a million pictures of my ride (just as you have im sure) and i would have expected at least one of the OP's pics to look like GFM paint. My mistake.

The So Cal section, it was today but there is a BBQ that might come up soon, also every friday night at 9pm there is a mini meet but the location always changes cause we keep getting kicked out, lol

Hope to see you and your new ride!
