Progress Thread Project Copper Can

Then the entire deck surface will look like it needs paint.

Really, you spent all that money on what is basically a custom color, and now you are covering that up w/ what looks like black primer? (in pic's at least)

That is basically the same as me deciding to s h itcan the entire custom laden six in favor of a HCI 5.0.

The car will photograph the same regardless of how much of a better pic you take. It will still look like you bought a fiberglass hood, and decided not to paint it.

Stop where you are, give yourself a chance to hate it before you spend more money covering up the perfectly good money you already spent.

I agree with Mike but it's your car and if you like it.... I just really like the Copper paint better. I'd try to spend the extra and match that.

My vote is up the wiper cowl, over the roof, down the hatch and through the woods to grandma's! Oh wait... omit the grandma part.

I like it!

I will add, I haven't seen this in person but I have seen the brushed metal vinyl and it is breathtaking on the few cars that Ive seen it done on. I really doesn't photograph well and you can't appriciate the detail. This is one of those need to see it in person type deals

I need to remember my inhaler then if I'm ever up close to the car.

I think it'd be different on a different color base (Like grey, pewter, or silver).

I think hood looks good black next to the copper color but im not so sure about doing more than that in black but then again when your done i may say you fn nailed it. Its your car and you have a vision so go for it! Ive seen copper cars with black hoods and black wheels and have always loved it, i have never seen the the other body parts your wanting to do in black and this is mostly why i say im not sure.......if you found the money tree i would say hood etc in carbon fiber that would look SICK! good luck car looks great anyway!.

yes yes would look killer with the copper only on the sides of cowl
