so if its flat white, did you use a clear over the base coat?? like PPG`S flex `n` flat clear you can mix it in degrees of gloss, from 5-15 % gloss
or is it the kustom shop flat white??
i see my old kit is doing just fine

Flat with pearl haven't seen that before. Is it my eyes or does rear bumper look a little wavey and buldges a bit where it meets the quater panel?
Looking at mine it does a little but had it molded.
But why the flat with pearl would of looked sick not that it looks bad.

Paint looks real clean, guy did a nice job. WOW that bitch sits low. Jesus lol.

But as far as the color goes, eh you can't even tell you painted it man haha. Looks like it has primer on it. Shoulda went with an actual visible and defiant color if you're spending bucks to get it painted.. *shrug*

i bet its much different in person. i think we have like... maybe 2 members with professional digital cams, that would show the difference.

Forget what everyone else is saying...I love it! Not glossy but not to dull, and you can still tell you cleaned it when you....Clean it.

Honestly.. I think it'd look better glossy, but that's just my opinion. Love the kit combo, overall it's a really sharp car!

i could wax the car if i wanted a shiny finish on it but it looks much different in person with all the pearls and flake.
