Maybe the weather will stay this way long enough for you to change your mind on that paint

So you see, it might be cooperating

Ben I don't believe so... They do make some pretty crazy coatings like temp changing paint. Check out that link posted above.

We sold the DuPont version of that years ago back at the Paint Shop I worked in. It got a lot of use, for something so expensive. One guy painted his guitar (Fender) in it, and it looked awesome under stage lights. Cars come out fine.

Woah. I just had about a zillion ideas. All tasteless, but very brightly painted.

Considering that MX3 looks like it was with a mop dipped in red poster paint, colour me jealous.

So when they ask you what color the car is at the motor vehicle office, what do you tell them?

I know - "Depends".
