® Paint Color ®

I had a teal metallic '93 MR-2 turbo back in, well, '93... LOVED that color. Looked sort of greenish aqua in bright sunlight and at night looked a nice royal blueish color with metallic electric blue highlights.

I want to paint my current Signal Yellow MR-2 Lotus Isotope Green (not to be confused with the earlier Krypton Green Isotope green is a bit less green I think both have a pearl overcoat).

If I got a second MR-2 or another Supra I'd probably like to go with a metallic gunmetal with a purple two tone flake in it. I think it's look wicked as a highlight color in the right lighting.

Gun metal wheels are sexy, now you have me thinking Pearl Gunmetal for paint perhaps. What about Blue steel? A color that looks nothing like Blue but just gives hints of it at certain angles.
