Default Monterey Blue on ZR6X
so i`m tired of the matte looking i had in the last 2 years, i decided to paint the car gloss this time, Monterey blue has always be my favourite blue.
from different angle and the sunlight condition the paint will show different color from purple to semi chrome blue












compare to Jetstream blue in the night






Monterey blue vs Semi-gloss red


how the car used to look like

Gorgeous color! Now that you finally changed it, that wrap was horrible!

Looks good, but it looks pretty close to Jetstream Blue. Can you take a pic next to a JSB widebody C6?

Very nice!

In for some better pics.

I painted my FRC Monterey Blue also. Favorite blue by far just a little too flashy for me nowadays.
