    October 2019 POM WINNER!

    October 2019 POM Winner!
    Model
    Hotrod
    FFR Number
    F5R1000075HR
    Description of Setting
    Cruising in late afternoon in a small Texas town. Lots of great architecture and colors to go along with the car's paint job. I like the glint of the setting sun on the concrete and hood with this one. iPhone 11 with ProCamera App.

    The paint has an underlying pearl gold content which the sun really set ablaze in the picture.

    Your car looks fantastic! I'm really interested in the color. I want to go with a dark green, and yours looks to be in the range that I am looking for. Would you be willing to share the color number?

    The pearlescent and undercoating work was quite extensive to derive that specific effect.

    Thanks for posting that. I'm going to file that away for when I get to paint.
