I wanted to go for a crazy color again but with the amount of money that type of paint cost it was out of my budget. I didnt pay a single dime for the new paint job. Every other color i had to pick from was plain i could of picked any color but they where all regular paint. The pearl i got has a color change to blueish and ive even seen a purple on it

I also had the chance to keep the original paint but only the sides and back where going to get painted. The front bumper, hood and roof needed work already so i just went with a complete new paint job

Lol purple and blue where on book of possible color but again they where just regular paint so it didnt catch my attention as much, for sure it was hard decision to take i had so many colors to pick from and i had like 3 days to pick lol. I asked around in my family and friends and the best choice was the pearl white. Also wanted to get something that would match my blue accent i already had going. Also it would of felt like a big downgrade if i didnt get a small amount of color change like my old paint did

Lol they are phone pics so they arent the best. In the front i have killed a few bugs lol where my job is at its almost at the state limit so its like traveling out of town so bugs are really common and for some reason where my car is at there is alot of small black insects that like to hang out in the cars not just mine
