Top notch. Looks like a cross between IRR and Radiance.

I don't find the color to be that unique per say... I like the calipers and blacked fog's. They did an amazing job. Is it someone here on this forum's car or anyone, anyone know? How much is a job like that, 10K USD? More?

That's fantastic but hardly seems worth the trouble. You could probably sell the car and buy another one in the other color and take far less of a hit than the cost of having that done. Plus I wonder how tight everything is after being disassembled and put back together. Of course, the car starts out the color of my XKR, so I may be being a little defensive

Also, if that really is a $10k job, you could get the car repainted a different color every week for 2 years if you had it done at Earl Scheib's!

From most of my searching the biggest problem had been finding a car in any other color then black , gray or white. I would assume the owner was looking for something other then the normal color set because there was no accident damage so it was just a repaint.
