Thats the colour we were gonna spray our formula student car last year, only the Tw@ of a lectuer that picked up the paint decided to pocket most of the money and buy some rover metalic cack instead. still didnt look bad

Check out house of kolour, they do an amazing candy apple red. I've seen it first hand and it is brilliant, they also do a rather nice blue but i can't remember the name...doh!

Pretty expensive though :roll:
