MSP changing body color??

it's called "blazing yellow mica," and the code is on the sticker in the driver side door jamb. don't remember it off hand...
 
my paint job has a few rough spots and i've definitely considered repainting. sticking to yellow... or a white MSP would be flippin' hot! and, call me crazy, but is my hood a different color than the rest of my car? sorta bugs me...

The hood was replaced maybe? the Yellow from the P5 is not as shinny as the yellow from the MSP, so that could be a P5 hood. ORRRRRRR its just how the sunlight reflects.
 
could have been replaced by the previous owner(s)... i have no way of knowing. i definitely notice the difference in the hood pretty regularly. the door handles have the same lighter tone as well.

yeah that looks like the p5 hood....especially after a few years without a clear coat....that's what mine looked like before i claybared the hell out of it and waxed it really good....

and the door handles fade 10 times worse than the metal....actually all the plastic pieces that are yellow will fade faster than the rest of the body....it's sad
 
my hood looks like a different color than the rest of the car at times too. but I had the whole car resprayed at the same time so i know its not the case. Just how the sun hits it at different angles i think. Its laser blue one minute, then purple ish the next. i think its cool.
 
The only variations in color on my Spicy that I notice is the bumpers. Now as I've said, the rear has been repainted and most know the joys of color matching the Spicy is more headache than you would like to bear. However, the front bumper does it too. However, I know it's just the way you see it from a standing position. Once you kneel down you see the paint different.

im gonna cast my vote for this too, the roof of the car looks like it matches the hood, so prolly the sunlight. I've apparently been diagnosed with a "color deficiency" though so dont hold me to it...haha
 
you could if you used clearcoat as a mid coat and added some pearl or metallic into the clear.


I dont know s*** about paint, would multiple coats of clear (to provide protection for the paint) change the paint color?
