Not sure on the black a-spec kit.......have to see it I guess. It looks good on some cars, but I don't think it will go with the lines on the 3rd Gen.

He better have it done by Friday. This guy is getting 0 sleep with this major project underway. The car with your little black details and whatever you have going on with the emblem is gonna look hot!! For you to decide on the color you did, do the black where you did, I can only sit and wait for the final product.

I'm also excited to see the results. My friend in Raleigh has this color with his IS350, and it's a much different pearl from the WDP. It will put you in a trance when you look at it under flourescent street lights. The WDP is more of a yellow dull hue.

Nice! Lexus has some really kick ass pearl white's.

Glacier Frost is another one with a ton of blue pearl tint in it.

Looking forward to the final results.

I'm probably gonna get stoned for saying this, but you should wait till the paint job is finished before posting pics of the whole car. Let them
