I like something different, that I won't see on other Birds, and stands out from the crowd without looking stupid. I'll probably keep the green I have. It's different, and this shade is something I haven't seen on any cars around. yes, some shades are close, but not like mine. Which is cool. BUT, who knows what I'll decide when the time comes?

Thanks. More than likely, I will use the same color again. First, Gayle picked it out. Second, it's known that the Sport is THAT color. Third, I NEVER have to worry about running across another like it. Fourth, it still has a factory feel about it....although it's certainly not.

i beg to differ 100 times over.. 70% of the jaw dropping cars on the road are blue or charcoal or both or a 2 tone with 1 of/both those colors incorporated

I've had a charcoal Bird and a Blue one (and red). I do like the gray and the blue, but the Sport is what she is....green.

Pearl? That't wouldn't pimp it up would it? I'm trying to get a mental picture.

Adding pearl to your paint is similar to what you old farts :poke: (I kid! :D) would call adding metal flake to your paint. He doesn't mean adding the actual color of "pearl" to your paint. :D

IMHO it is always a very subtle addition to any paint job! :D
...and there was light!

^ LOL old farts hahah

adding pearl to the clear will liven the color up a bit in the sunlight.. it's basically a colored metal flake that you really only see in direct light (mostly sunlight).. it really won't change your color at all, but it'll add an extra bit of 'pizazz'

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pearlescent_coating

that's the only wikipedia page i could really find.. pay no mind to the rice pic on the page, that's actually 'chameleon' paint or a sh*tload of pearl lol typical pearl doesn't show nearly that much change.. it's usually just 1 little spot, that's in direct sunlight.. i think i'm failing at a proper explanation lol
