You're suggested color looks right on Chris, as if you are reading my mind I've still got a couple months of block sanding ahead of me, giving me plenty of time to change my mind a few more times! Thanks for the suggestion on Acura and Audi. I think I really won't feel good until I find a real vehicle in a color I like that I can see in person, or pick something that looks good in pictures and hope that it looks as good on a test panel.
Well, on the more conservative side of things, I used a production color so in the event that I have a fender bender it can easily be fixed/re-painted. That is the advantage of using a readily available production color. Disadvantage is three stage paint jobs usually have more wow factor.

This is the fun part. I look forward to seeing it all painted up.
Chris
