That color is BEAUTIFUL!!! It will really make the lines of the car pop in the sun. Seeing your engine bay makes me really wonder if I should paint mine this winter while my engine is out again!

Oh yeah, I wanted to do everything while the car is disarmed, I want to do the least to make it a worthy car to admire.

Looks a lot like a GM color just a touch darker. I am sure he mixed it from an OEM formula. Its very rare for someone to make their own formula.
