I don't like the chameleon paint, but I like the metallic paint. I know a girl that's got like a metallic cranberry Lexus. It looks awesome. It was an auctioned car police seized from a crack dealer.

Nah, I'm sure the cops snorted it all before she got the car.

I say it depends on what you want to do with your car. If you want your car to be showy not fast, then go with the paint. If you get the paint though, try to keep the car looking as slick as possible. If it gets to flashy or *bling bling* then it will just look dumb and very "ricey". If you want a fast car then stick with a cheaper paint.

well correct me if I am wrong, but the reason the cameleon paint is expensive is because I think it is a 3 stage paint, and a cheaper 2 stage paint wouldn't look quite as good but theres no problem with it

I know 3 stage paints are often used in pearl colors

u could get a custom paint job that integrates chameleon paint into it. like have graphix painted on the car w/ chameleon paint. a buddy of mine has chameleon flames on his blazer and it looks amazing. but that **** is pretty pricey. dude just think what u want to have, its not that hard to be unique, u just gotta think about it.

I really like chameleon paint, and would've put it on my Celica when it was being painted, but it's very expensive I think. So I ended up going with three stage spa yellow pearl from Honda, which is a beautiful color. smile.gif

Does anyone know exactly how much chameleon paint typically costs?
