tooo much, a bit more subtle finish is the one used on the 1997-2002 Firebird. Just enough to give you a taste of it but not overwhelming.

I've never really like the iridescent paint jobs - just really not interesting to me. I have seen ones where its a dark blue metallic that fades around to a lighter blue, or a dark purple, or something like that - those I can dig. But when its one color in one spot (like orange) and a completely different color (like teal) elsewhere, it just looks tacky to me.

Well, that paint was a hot commodity when it first came out. I own a bodyshop, and have sprayed Dupont's version known as "Chromalusion". It comes in many different color-changing hues, and it is very EXPENSIVE. I just called my jobber, and here is the price: $464.70 per pint, $929.10 per quart. Knowing this, I can tell you that repainting your new Camaro properly is expensive enough, but when you add the extra costs of this type of paint, you will be looking at well over $10,000 to make this dream come true.

10,000 more reasons not my favorite color. Maybe on a motorcycle.

Maybe you could convince the next director of Miami Vice 2. I'm sure that would work!!
