what color is Josh Kalis's? reminds me of my "dark shadow grey" ford mustang but I think Josh Kalis's is a kinda darker/different grey..

Josh's kind a looks like a metallic black more than a gray. But hard to tell with pics... either way, awesome paint and awesome car.

Everytime I think I have decided to go with a solid black, I see pics like these and I start doubting myself... Maybe someone should invent a paint that changes color with a flip of a switch....:)

The color of my car (josh) is actually a Ford grey. I can't remember witch one.... but its a gun metal that we added a bit of flake to.

By the way... were did you get that photo of me and the car chillin on the side of the road? That was in Carlsbad, ca... and there wasn't that many people with us that day. i don't think i ever saw that one.... and i know the guys that shot the photo's.

How did you paint the carbon fiber pattern? I'd like to do this for my GSX stripes on my Buick!

ProTourGSX,

I'm guessing he painted the grey on real carbon panels and left the middle unpainted.

So, who makes a '70 Chevelle carbon fiber trunk lid?!! (hint, hint)

Yes the are carbon panels
I taped off the carbon then applied the gray then cleared full panel and then applied satin clear on the carbon and outlined the carbon with a black stripe.

Thanks

old thread but here's mine, we call it Tungsten Titanium metallic (custom mix). it a Sikkens paint. inspired by Josh's 69... started with Grigio Silverstone metallic and added more flake (and some red flake), more black and even some brown. has ghosted stripes sprayed in base color in opposite direction buried in clear.
