yet another What color thread...
I'm about to re-re-do my car and I want to paint it something different.
I was thinking Miller lite blue, or just going with the pearl white.
But I think Miller lite blue looks a lot like electric blue and it seems like everyone is doing pearl white.
I want some serious opinions, I was thinking doing a pearl yellow.
Maybe spa yellow (s2000) or sunrise yellow (color of "Bumblebee" from Transformers)
I think the Yellow with carbon goodies will compliment very well. I have a lip, ducts, exhaust shield, and was thinking of doing the type-c spoiler and a hood.
The other thing is the process. Some people said I should do a base of silver, then yellow, and pearl the clear. I don't know, I'm not a painter.
Any input would be great
Any way thanks again
and if anyone is bored on p-shop be cool to see some renderings

Take a look into the House of Kolor "Ice Pearls." They are made with glass, and have one hell of alot of pop when they are in the sun. I just did mine with the blue pearl, and holy crap. It looks black when it's not got the sun right on it, but when the sun hit it, it flares up something fierce.

That's a shot of the core support. Notice how the areas not in direct light from the camera look black.
And here's a shot of the color chip book:
