Hi mate and welcome to TorqueCars. Glad you found the forum!

Where are you from? Briley coachworks in Kent are pretty good when it comes to paint - PM Timmy on here for some prices.

Have a look at the House of Kolor range of paints and find a recommended sprayer, its expensive stuff but you really do get what you pay for.

Try Xquisite. All the work I've seen them do has been incredible. They are based in Surrey, but from what I've seen it's well worth the trip. If you're on Facebook check out their page as they have loads of examples of their work there. If not, have a look on here: http://www.xquisiteautomotive.co.uk/home.htm

Is this the pearlescent stuff?

Nissan used to do a colour called Mystic Green on the 1998 Primera P11 GT which refected green straight on with a perpendicular light source but went all kinds of pink and orange when the angles differed.


My own car has a pearlescent finish but it's very subtle in changes of hue.
