coming from me a painter and by looking at ypur car it is in need of a good buff. it doesnttake long for a car to fade if its not looked after even if its is 6 months old. and another point that your only noticing now coz u got work done is a color difference there is a color difference on every plastic bit that is painted from factory on every car because the solvents evaporate different and make the color diff. go to a car yard and look at a brand new car the bars and handles will be diff i guarantee you you just dont look coz you think new means perfect,far from it...

Them pictures where taken from a 1.3mp phone camera and dont show much they really stand out. It can be noticed from a hundred meters away.

I went with them to the paint shop today and it turns out that they used a base paint and it was not even close.

This came from the paint people themselves who said that it looked ridiculous.

By the way asshole I GIVE A ****

I think of white cars, like I think of Vanilla Icecream.. It is the absence of flavour, or in the case of cars: colour..

I personally would never buy a white car, but that's just me..

And hahahah.. A bit touchy.. Lighten up big fella, we're on the world wide web here. Not everyone will share your opinion.. Live with it..

I'll vouch 4 that too. Our VT has factory fitted and sprayed hbd kit, the kit is a slightly different colour to the rest of the car.
