Quite cool, but wacky paint's a bit dated.

Looks like it says 'Pishy Devil' on the windscreen as well.

Too much flake in the paint.

That flip paint should be smooth and effortless, not rough and spotty.

The ideas always good though. Flip paints make heads turn, whether its a 3-4 year old paint or not.

Would be better painted a solid colour, imo...

Never been a fan of flip-paint.

Think it's risky devil, It looks like the risky is in reference to the paint choice

Damn is if the persons head who turns then crashes just becuase they were looking at your car

(Andys C13RSA had this effect on someone, and Donnas gets EVERYONES head turn, chavs, neds, little girls, even had thumbs up from old grannies ).

Following her is indeed funny watching all the heads follow the car

flip paint is very dated, especially purple/gold/green

polished or chromed will always look good, with a splash of body colour etc.

Looks kinda cool but the outside would have to be the right colour.

bieransri got it spot on though.
