Very interesting paint. What's it look like in the sun? Good choice on the colors and great job on the finish work.

Its spirit R paint, with a little more black, to make it slightly darker.

In the sun explodes It has 2 different metals: thin and thick aluminum. When hit by the sun, the exposed part goes silver, almost white. The rest of the body shows a very nice grey. On some areas you can see a violet shade, on others red, on others green. When NOT hit by light, the car is almost black

Most amazing Mazda colour

Its still a long way from a running car.

Chameleon paint is fugly

Pictures do not reflect how cool this looks.

Its slightly different from a stock paint, but not too "show"

If you are into cars, you will notice. If you are not, "its just another grey car"
