Lounge / Our cars feature opening doors, hood, trunk, even gas door!!!
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Absolutely-Stunning-1988-Mercury-Cougar-MINT-Must-See-/230580946894?pt=US_Cars_Trucks&hash=item35afb207ce

Can someone fill me in as to why so many people photograph their car with all the doors, hood, trunk, etc open like it's a model?  Unless there is some special feature, like lambo hinge kits or the like, I don't understand the full car shots from a distance with all the doors open. :confused:


(This is not a 'lead' thread hence the post in the lounge.)

User Rides / Bought an unusual car
Understand this is not everyone's cup of tea (of course, neither are Cougars) but I've liked this styling in cars since I was a kid and I think this is pulled off pretty well compared to other ones of the same type:

Electrical Tech / Auto Climate Control LEDs Blinking
I thought there was a thread about this years ago but maybe I'm not using the search feature deep enough.  I searched "blinking" in the Electrical forum.

Anyone battled the blinking orange LEDs in the auto climate control unit?  The LEDs that blink are the buttons I have selected.  The whole string of LEDs don't blink, only the ones I have selected.  The numbers blink too however they will change with whatever I set them at, but they will still blink.

Body Repair/Metal Work/Painting / Understanding today's paint codes, help with finding metallic gray paint
I need to find a gray metallic similar to the "Sterling Gray" offered on the 2009 F-Series and many other Fords for 2009.  Here's my problem.  While looking at several 2009 F-Series trucks today, I noticed the 250 and 350 had a really nice metal flake (a.k.a. "more coarse") and the 150 had a so-so metal flake.  All the trucks had the same hue of gray but different degrees of flake.

And consistent with the difference in metal flake, the window stickers listed the colors differently as well.  All the ones with more flake in the paint had "Sterling Gray Clearcoat Metallic" listed on the sticker and all the ones with less flake had "Sterling Gray Metallic" listed on the sticker.

Thinking there may also be a difference in the paint code, I checked the door tags to get the code of the one I liked and found they all had the same paint code, UJ.  The F150 trucks with less flake and the F250 and 350 trucks with more flake all had the same paint code.  I don't like the 150 gray but I do like the 250 and 350.  The PPG computer however lists all the same paint for all those trucks even though they look different.  And they all have a layer of clearcoat, even though the description in the 250 and 350 window sticker spells it out, the 150 has clearcoat too.

WTF?

Anybody know of a similar color out there that is consistent?  I'm looking for a gray metallic with a bit more flake than usual - like the 2009 F250 color is perfect.  I just can't use that code because it may turn out like the 150.
