Looks really nice, but I can't see the effect that the OEM IS has with the clamshell pearl look. Maybe with different lighting? Looks very much like OEM WDP from Acura.

Yeah, the black roof finishes it off perfectly! Someone else mentioned the base 07/08 tails - I agree. I put them on my 04 WDP and they look siiiik.

Can't wait to see the final thing - take some good quality photos outdoors on a nice sunny day!!!

This look amazing. 100X better then was it was (ssm) hehe
Look, whatever you thought I was trying to bash on you, I wasnt. I just wanted to make sure.

Right now it looks like you dont need to wet sand and buff, but then again if I was in person I would prolly understand why.

Car looks really good. Wish I had a beater to drive around so I can repaint my car.

So whats ur plan on your next wheels?

What I think you should do now is find someone that has the WDP and take a photo shoot with them, with your new white so we can compare the two next to each other?

Looks good! Except that... it doesn't look like the Glacier Frost Mica Pearl in that lighting condition... Looks more like Acura's WDP with some sexy blue flakes

the whole point i think the OP is trying to make is "it looks better than SSM"....

i think professional photography along with a WDP side by side would show us the real color.....in any case....i think any white color with dark tints would look of the hook....!!!!
