I thought the same thing stu!

I will have to do a YouTube video of the bumper on Saturday.  Photos don't do the colour justice. Impressed how vivid the colour change is as you walk by. And that's on a square toolbox. A curvy car should look great.

I wheeled it outside and it looked nice, more violet than pink... Went from deep blue to violet to green,

That's more like it.

Ok. So hit a few problems...
The front bumper kept reacting with the paint already on, so I need to strip it right back and start from scratch.

To get the chameleon to work properly it needs to be perfectly smooth black, it shows up any imperfections.
I have one spot on the bonnet, so will do it again.

But learnt a lot. Need to replenish my paint supplies then start again, but I am happy that I can do it.

Just uploading a video of the bonnet.

It's weird,  it's only reacting on the sides of the bumper... I've even resprayed the spoiler a few weeks ago with no problems.  Using all the same paints, thinners everything.
I need to take the bumper back to the gel coat and start again I think, I got one patch back to the gel coat and that was ok

Im looking into spraying my panels at the moment, apparently theres a sealer you can spray to stop reaction from original paint and new.

Cheers I will look into it,

Ok people's I need some opinions, I've fitted the bumper even though it's a sh!t paint job to give me an idea of the colour.

I'm not 100% about the colour, I'm not sure if it's a little "feminine" !!

My missus loves it, and I like it too but Being a man the violet is a bit 50/50 for me..although the tuscans look good in this colour
Here is some pics and a video, if I'm going to change my mind with the colour, now is the time.

Please give some opinions from a mans point of view driving a car this colour.
