+1 I really don't see how he's hating.. He's just pointing out something for the OP in case he didn't noticed.. Feels like to me you guys are the one taking it too serious..

Anyways, Love the car!

lol i am sure the op noticed his paint he is there in person and did this awesome photoshoot

this can go either way but most already know its damn near impossible to match tricoat paint .... so no need to point it out when most already know that and the guy is just trying to show his car once he finished it. either way i dont think anyone is taking it that serious on either side

like you said love the car

not hating on his comments. i just don't see it as that big of a deal. as someone said earlier, it's really hard to match white.

Thanks everybody for the awesome comments!!! Wasn't expecting this to go three pages so quick.

Now onto the the paint issue brought up.. hahaha. It's funny how some people get worked up about it all... no biggie. Yea anyone who has a white car can tell you how hard it is to match white paint with out blending it to another body peice. Now with a three stage pearl (Starfire Pearl), its now 10x's harder to match it. Even the outer paint matched grill i received from Sewell is slightly lighter... as well as the vertex peices i just had painted. They are slightly lighter in certain angles and match up fine in different angles. It's all good though.. i'm not losing sleep over it

Thanks again everyone

^ Yeah SFP is a b**** of a color to match, but it looks amazing. I can get over the fact that not everything will match. I don't think i wuda taken another color. Maybe one day i'll repaint the whole thing so it all matches better

but if you dont own a white car you wont know how hard it is to match while dark cars are easier to match~

Its like people saying black cars are the hardest to keep clean when in reality their not. White is hardest to keep clean and easiest to keep polished/swirl free while black cars are easiest to keep clean (looking) and hardest to keep polished/swirl free. Run over a puddle of water in white and you're all dirty but you can wipe it off right away, run over a puddle of water in black and you cant see the road dirt but you cant just wipe it off right away.
