No connection to seller, just saw the link on C-1/2 forum and thought some here might want to see it.

Mine is metallic blue and I used synergy green for the stripes. I can tell you it is one beautiful color. When I was laying it down, all I could think was, man I should have made the whole car this. Im glad I didn't but I can see why he went with the color. It is certainly something to see in real life. Not a fan of the two tone. I know why he did it though. The paint cost $120 for a pint!!! He prob saved himself 200 bucks!

I actually like the green color, but it looks bad as a two tone. Also, the webbing in the back makes it look like it was hit and cracked the bumper, and the smoke stuff on the sides looks like the clearcoat is pealing. I wouldnt pay more than $1500 for it.
