	there ya go new pics did I say the car looked a funny colour in its base coat ;D don't worry the pinky colour won't be staying ;D the colour is on because its the best base for the HOK kopper pearl the car is going and its very reflective as can be seen above the rear arch thats not a dent its actually a reflection of the arch on the panel above it so it should help with the gold flip in the kopper pearl
