New paint - 2002 Corvette Electron Blue

Well, it's about 6 months old, but give me your opinions. The main color is 2002 Corvette electron blue, and the lower is 2002 Sebring silver. This was the stock color scheme for my car.

I don't like it as much as I thought I would.. but that could be because of the silver ground effects. I don't like two-tone paint schemes. But it doesn't look bad.

I think that looks sweet- I kinda like the two tone style because it looks stock. You've definitely got something going for you there.

I think it looks great, after reading the post and waiting for the pictures to show up I had my doubts but after seeing the pictures I think it looks awsome, looks stock but the paint quality looks much better, would definalty make me turn my head if I saw it in person.

I like it alright but it doesnt look that far off from quasar and I think it would look 10 times better all blue. Just my opinion, take it with a grain of salt.

The pictures aren't that good. They are 25MB on my computer, so I sized them down significantly. The paint looks better than any factory job I've ever seen, and I work for a dealer. It is a very metallic paint. The prep took a month and only cost me $700 for the whole deal. And I kept the two-tone scheme (despite all my friend's opinions) because monochromatic schemes are for later model thirdgen's and MAACO repaints.

Just wait unitl I ZAINO it!!

Looks great. I like the two tone look. The only thing I don;t like is the silver is too close to looking white in the pictures. Oh yeah and Hate those rims in general (just opinion. Everyone to their own I always say)

The Car looks great though.

Looks pretty good, but if it were MY car I'd get a Z28 grill, made it all blue, and throw either IROC-Z wheels or 17x9 ROH Snypers on it. But, whatever floats your boat man...
