I like the metallic in this purple color. Now you need some nice wheel to make the perfect combo! Nice job!!

Definitely a nice color....but I think the tint on the tails is too dark. IMO go with a lighter percentage!

Looks a lot like the purple that the new maximas come in; which looks amazing in the sun..

I'd lighten up on the tail and sidemarker tint. Otherwise, in for some sunlight shots!

paint is great but the sidemarkers and tails gotta go. the murder them is hideous, you lose so much detail when everything blends in like that

Def think you need to switch up the tails...

I'm a fan of the color, though.

Gotta get some contrast in those taillights, and I like the all-clear headlights for your car, too. Good luck.
