Fit Accident, my Tidewater Blue is now...
After sliding my car into a pile of cinderblocks and wooden boxes, make that many piles of cinderblocks and wooden boxes, my car got an excellent treatment at a "1 Day Paint" shop...
From what I heard, they tried to color match my damage, but ended up doing this instead...
As you can see it's slightly gray and purplish at night and during the day it's brighter and almost baby blue... My guess is maybe they ordered a can of Vibrant Blue Pearl by accident and mixed it? Anywho I think it's great! No doubt it's a 1 day paint job but I'm still quite happy of the outcome
Opinions, feedback, and anything else welcome and appreciated!

Anyway, good paint job as far as I can tell. Hopefully it'll stay though. And stay away from those cinder blocks and wooden boxes that jump at you!

I remember they were working on that a long time ago but it never aired?
Glad your car came out that nice from a 1 day. Looks good!

Riptide Water Blue... NOT BAD! i was trying to debate a color name myself, I think I like this
I may have to see if it's possible to sand it down a little though, there is considerable orange peel.. and it also looks "semi-gloss" at certain angles, but I could lie to people and say I want that look. hahaha
I thought the color would be similar to the GE's Polished Metal Metallic but it's much more blue, it's definitely a one off color. Reminds me of the new Scion xB color, except I think that one is flat, mine is metallic.
My wheels are 15x9 with 225s. I was HOPING I could fit 245 tires but probably not
