The renissance red looks good. But if I think I went s red route id do like cherry, darker red. Like candy red lol

Also just an idea how do you think the red-orange would look on a sc?

Obsidian black I cant tell the diffrnce from normal black. Maby my eyes are jusr bad lol.
that pic looks like its a mate-gloss lol.

They grey is looking appealing. That sort of darkish grey with flakes would look nice

Does one know how anodizing process is done???
You would need a lathe big enough to hold a car....

From the internet......
Anodizing is accomplished by immersing the aluminum into an acid electrolyte bath and passing an electric current through the medium. A cathode is mounted to the inside of the anodizing tank; the aluminum acts as an anode, so that oxygen ions are released from the electrolyte to combine with the aluminum atoms at the surface of the part being anodized. Anodizing is, therefore, a matter of highly controlled oxidation—the enhancement of a naturally occurring phenomenon.

Well youre gooing to have to find a lathe big enough to hold a car
