Painted fangs and rear, as some of you will also see in photo chat.

Very cool.

Red__Zed · 08-07-2011, 12:36 PM

I actually like the matte black fangs on the blue

kenchan · 08-07-2011, 12:56 PM

it's a shade lighter than matte-black so give it a nice blending contrast on silver/white cars.
guy.

I agree... I love my CF on my PW. Much better than black.

Nice Ken... although, beading is not necessarily a good thing

Actually, sheeting is much better. You should try Optimum opticoat sometime... it's sheets uber fast. Beading will remain on the surface after rain, attracting dirt/etc... then drying up (esp in sun), then mineral deposits (if tap water) and dirt will leave an etch in the paint... ala magnifying glass.

btw, the beading you see can also be effects of the existing wax or sealant (which I am sure you have on there at some point in the past, right?). The speedshine, though it has some wax/sealant properties also extends the life of the existing LSP.

My thoughts exactly.

Black fangs and valance look awesome.

Took the ZR to the regatta mini show again to day and there was actually sunshine. I will post some pics in the photography section later as I have a lot of chores to catch up on.

Thinking about doing the same whenever I have time. How'd it go?
