If we kept adding black to the red, it will mud up the color. So we decided to do a black base first and then spray the red. The last spray out look like we were there. I dont think theres any hope. Plus we are tired of old Murphy throwing monkey wrenches at us, LOL.

At this point we just want to get here done and move on.....




I think G5.R got made we were going to paint her red, LOL `
Copper metallic....... just sayin'

I learned at a young age, you keep mixing you eventually end up with turd brown
