What? you're taking off the kandy? Jesus - that was gorgeous mate..

I'd love to see a candy/metal gray...

black pearl, mixed with a shade of silver and a hint of deep purple, sounds a bit

, but looks stunning............. had this done on an old vespa of mine years ago :lol:

trick is to mix just the slightest hint the purple, too much and it looks like a purple pimp mobile :roll:

Gunmetal grey would look unique if you're after an understated look.

Absolutely have to agree with CJ there. I've been talking ablout getting a gunmetal spray job since I got the FTO. I think it would look class. I look at an Aston Martin in gunmetal and think how good the FTO would look in same.

I think a Kandied version of Midnight Blue would be classic! Mind you the purple in this photoshoped version is very fresh lookin' http://www.cyber-mag.com/car/fto.htm .

I didn't think I would but I really like that - sure it has more holes than most cheese.. but you gotta respect the vision..clearly somebody WANTED it to look like that.. and she went ahead and did it..

ballsy!

I'm with the guys on this one - understated, subtle - gunmetal grey would look brilliant

How does it work - you buy the paint and give it to the painter or do they source it for you?
