Blue/Green Flip paint

heres some pics of one of my customers FD's in the U.K. her got the Veilside body kit and the Stout hood from me, and just sent me these pics. I have never seen the blue/green (green/gold and Blue/red) flip so i thought I'd share.







I'd love to see it in person, I'm sure the pictures don't do it justice. This is what Montego Blue SHOULD have been ;P

I personally think the paint/ rims/kit are ugly... To each his own though.

That's very nice looking. It looks a bit rought on the front in that last picture, but still hotness. I'd really like to see dark blue/light blue flip paint.

Agreed. Chameleon paint=lame. Looks like you spilled oil over the car or something (well, when you add purple).

I personally would have to spend $8k alone to make that car look good (All new stock body parts, all JDM, and then having to paint the whole car inside and out, and fixing drilled holes for wingless..etc etc)

I didn't know this type of "taste" existed in the UK. I'd expect more/better.

$8k to make it look good? thats harsh, but again to each his own. I think it looks fine, and I appreciate the work put into it. Nice job man. And I wouldnt really be concerned with what anyone has to say negative on it.

I think the "tame" montego blue color is more fitting of the FD, but thanks for sharing the photos. Minus the front end (I don't mind the side and bumper skirts), I think it looks decent.

Paint looks great. But the rims and front bumper can burn in hell. Still looks decent though.

How about that Rally Focus in the background of pic#4?

Paint is cool, Mille Miglia rims are ugly and bricks, Veilside is .....well, Veilside.
