Previously it was Pearl Black (Glasurit Paint) and it was a bitch to mantain. Everytime i need to touch up i'd never get the new paint to match. Me wife picked the color (gotta let them do something!!) Pretty happy how it turned out. Paint job whole car was only 700bucks with paint.

Yup you noticed that too. Well i suppose that happens when you entrust your car to an idiot that supposedly says he can fix simple thing like lights!! Anyways i removed the housing and found that the holder was drilled into and some extra nuts and bolts have been added. The reason was that monkey broke some clips. I've got them fastened but it really has to be replaced.

Thanks guys. The paint is off a toyota catalogue. Mettalic Copper if memory serves me right. Its the standard colour on the Toyota Vios, at least in Malaysia it is.
Gonna get it cleaned and polished this weekend i hope. Any ideas on what to use?
