Not sure I see the resemblance? We don't have a single body part in common, only thing similar is we both have red cars? This is his car

His paint wasn't Kandy (that I know of) but it had the flake to it which made it appear a different color in the light (similar to the Kandy cars). Not to break rules of the thread so my car is in this shot too; it's showing his old car but it appears orange from the sun hitting the flakes in the paint:



The front bumpers are similar. While the hoods are different, the louvers bring similar effects.

Can anyone give a tip on what kind of paint they use on parts like the Shine diffuser on the white car above to create that blowmoulded plastic or rubbery effect?

hey bewtew, i am a big fan of your car but i have to say i liked your old wheels better. i love ccw classics to and almost orderd a set for myself, but to me the old wheels just made your car look sick. i think if you would have went with 19" ccw's they would look a lot better. but an absolute awesome ride non the less.
