This is how your wife will bust you for hitting up the strip club on your way home from work.....you're covered in glitter.

You do realize that "metallic" paint has flakes in it, right?






OP, put up some better pictures of it in the daytime, I'm sure it'll look better and not so girly.

I'm sure the paint looks good in person. Pearls when used well look great. Need more pics for a final judgment call

Not a thing wrong with it at all. Looks well done. Better PICS may make or break it for most IMO. Let's see those PICS, im sure it'll look good.

Better than most cars on this site that are way overdone and UGLY BTW.

The paint looks sick, but you should deff get some new pics. Who cares what they say it's different and the car doesn't seem to look that bad at least it's not chrome spinners. I saw a chrome silver z with metalic flake and it looked sick. People normally either love or hate cars that aren't super clean but you can't have something great without people saying you aren't.
