i was thinkin the whole car was purple too... I think we need more pics, i think it's just the angle and lighting that doesn't compliment the paint job here.

Thoes two colors arent really working for me that well If you like it then thats all that matters. I would have also liked to see it all purple instead of the two tone.

Honestly, the first thing I said when I saw that was "ugh". I would'nt let someone pay me to do that to my car.

Remember just my opinion.

I almost liked it except for the purple. Never have been a big fan of the color.

I was trying to do something besides the standard racing stripe layout, but I don't think I like the way the front end looks with the partial scallops. I personaly think the whole car purple would have been to much purple

The white stuff and the purple pearl that was used in the white is Dupont, the purple stuff on the car is House of Kolor. The guy who painted it said the clear dries in 2 days so I have no idea

I thought that at first but if you look closely it's actually the jeans of the guy that's in the backround.
