I will try to get better pics as some point, but the clear was reflecting the sun and sky. Not bad. It also seems to show different colors based on the sun - I've seen this with other metallics on cars. Cool ;D. Before it was black with tons of scratches (from previous owner) and different shades from fading. I removed the chrome side inserts and will paint those too because they have scratches on it as well. Now, I think it is missing something. The wheels are pitted and oxidized. I am thinking about painting them black or red or black w/ red reflective tape on the lip. Here is a pic of a Vespa with black wheels. Attachments:

Thanks all. I was just driving tonight through the city and the metallic and clear pick up the city lights really well. Kinda reminds me of movies where they show a shot of the hood of a car rolling through the Vegas strip. The metallic really reflects through. I really like it.
What do you think about the wheels? Should I paint them black like the Vespa?

yeah, that black would be nice against the grey, maybe with a red wheel tape?
