I like MNP3 but in some lights it can look , quite bronzy (spl?)

Outstanding car though, that or Millenium Jade, perfect for the 34



I nearly went for MNP3 when i resprayed my R33 but went for the much easier to match MNP2 instead

MNP3 is very exspensive paint. Around £350 per liter just for the paint.

Your car is/was just normal MNP1 MNP2 is a pearl like MNP3 but is darker and has a green tinge to it

There are many shades of MNP1 you might have been confused with one of the shades avalible. But deff MNP1

MNP2 and 3 both have a special tinter which goes in the top coat which gives it the flip to bronze and green or bronze and blue

Yours just looks too much purple mettalic but id need to see it from a diffrent angle. Still a lovley looking 33 though.

Depending on car size but 3.5 liters to paint a skyline. But thats of each coat, primer,base coat and pearl top coat. However its the base and top coat which is the expensive bit.
