Colour change?

Glow on a full car is a mission...... and very expensive. But looks amazing
OK, I think I'll scale back my ambitions a touch. How about the GC-47 equivalent, is that likely to be practical? I realise I'm a bit late to the party, but it does look really good on the DYC site.ukkid35 said:
As anyone who has seen my car in person will attest, it looks absolutely absurd, the front/roof/rear are completely different colours. My theory is that someone did a front end respray with some pink paint they happened to have lying around.
The road rash means it now looks like it has measles.
One option I'm considering is a colour change by Alan at Matt-Pack.co.uk
Seems like a cost effective option, any thoughts?
Rosso pearl is a great colour depending on who painted it as it has a dye in the basecoat which comes to life with someone that can apply lacquer very heavy without it running. I am not scared of it as I have painted dozens of Rosso cars. A good alternative is a 3 stage pearl, Ferrari Monza red which is a more stable colour than Rosso and will not fade to pink.

P15TVR is probably my favourite colour ever, but I can't afford a proper colour change - that would cost more than I paid for my car.So that is why I'm looking at other options, I don't care if it has a limited life, chances are it will last longer than I can keep my car in one piece.

GC47 is nice, most go for the RL71. But remember, DYC do not invent anything. They just call cyan-purple chameleon 'Alien GC-47' to make it sound cool and new, but we've been painting TVR's in it for 20 years lol. Anthony went for the blue-puple (RL-71) dark/subtle version with a satin finish.Gassing Station | Cerbera | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
