If you are going to try to make a decision on whether you like the color or not - Let's start with some decent (not the best) pictures to look at. It's been approx 6 days since paint and the car has been sitting in the shop - Which takes about 2 hours to get dust covered. As far as the color itself, it's Graphite Grey Effect (2004 IS300). It was a choice of 3 colors I had in mind and the last minute decided to go forward with this one. I'm very pleased with the way it came out - And the mods that I did (trunk lock, antenna shaved) we did on our White 3L almost 2 years ago. The seams filled and grille painted was a couple of things I wanted to do to set it apart.
Onto the pics:
Yes, a proper paint job (not Earl Sheib, Maaco, or other fly by night joint) costs big dosh... But if you want it done right - Use the best stuff and don't be cheap about it.
