      Neochrome (insert color changing lizard) pearl 08 Cobalt SS turbo

      I'm just going to leave this right here...
      and the wheels will get re-done a different color later... not sure what yet.

      Yes, it's color shifting between green, purple, and deep red. Angle and lighting make it look totally different... It's not totally flat, final few coats have glossifier added for satin finish.

      And yes, it's plasti dip. Black base coat. Mix of clear matte and glossifier with neochrome chameleon pearl pigments.

      Now just deciding on the color for the wheels. They used to be black with silver metalizer, but one got scratched up so I peeled them all. Could go with the same color, but might try something different.


      I do have a few cans of flat gunmetal around, I might just do that in the meantime.


      This is what black with silver metalizer looked like:

      based on the color i would go with dark bronze or gold. Although gunmetal would work if it has that brown/yellow cast to it.

      It sounds like I exceeded my 10 GB limit on photobucket traffic, lol... so I created an album on cobaltss.net forum... here's the link:

      http://Cobalt SS Network - serega12's Album: Neochrome chameleon 08 Cobalt SS

      it should be public, if not, let me know. It's just some random pictures from the wheels getting done dark purple gunmetal type color and such...

      Here's the car after the wheels are finished and on...




      Finished wheel color...




      And when the car is wet in the rain, dip totally changes color from pink/purple to deep orange/red...
