What you need is some good hi-res photos.

If you can get your car in my bathroom, it's ready.

You should keep that pic for if you ever need to put the car on eBay. Do you have any that are out of focus, at an angle and don't capture the whole car that you can supplement it with? :lol:

The new colour which is supposedly the original Madison Blue is much much more metallic. I was hoping after the respray the colour would have a new lease of life, but it's got a whole new personallity now. I tried to capture it, but due to the glare on the camera display I didn't do a very good job. You can see it just to the right of this pic though...

You can see blue and greens and reds in the sunlight, yet when the sun goes in it just looks dark dark blue/black 8)

I've still got a good amount of detailing to do and the whole car does actually need the mop going over it, but I'm happy... And most importantly, she's completely rust free! :D

Madison blue has Fine Blue pearl and Medium Pearl violet which is what the reds and blue your seeing. No metallics.

It a stunning colour.

Looks great. Just needs the swirls removing.
