new colour, you have to see it in person to really get the colour it's about 75% pearl so it changes shades heaps

it's just a made up colour alot of white pearl, alot of blue pearl some metalic base, lilac pearl powder, red pearl powder and some light blue paint i had left over from the light blue sedan i had, it has turned out very simular to the colour i think yor talking about, but if you parked the 2 side by side would prolly be miles apart

thanks for all the kind comments it makes the way i feel when seeing them done 100 time better :D :D

i love it! 8) 8) :shock: 8) the colour, stance, hubcaps and shaved handle all fit together. all i'd do if it was mine would be put limo tint on the windows. i'm not a fan of the whole fishbowl look, but thats probably just me.

Very nice Mick !!!

Needs an 8 in it mate !!! Would be a nice sleeper !!

I think certain individuals out there dont realize the contribution you have made to FB/EKs over the years and years. At the 08 AHD my mate seen me go over and talk to you ... when I got back , he was "thats the EK guy !!! how do you know him .... His always at Summernats every year in EKs". My mate drives a chev and prior owned a 32 rod .... not much of a Holden guy and he knew who you were hahahaha.

Another notch in the belt Mick , well done mate !!
