A little help is needed please, I have decided to can the 25th Anniversary Countach idea as there is just too many problems in building the cars and getting them in to Japan to sell, so I am just going to get myself a Diablo Roadster from DC Supercars in the UK


Yellow DC SuperCars Diablo Roadster

The Chassis cost about £3870.00 and the Bodykit is £5,840.00 to complete the build I have been told about £30,000 to about £45,000

I have spoken to 3 guys that have built the Diablos from DC and was informed that they are a easy build and pass the SVA test without any problems

I want to go with the colour of the Diablo Kit below but have no idea as to its name,


Some say it is call DARK CHERRY PEARL and others have said BLACK CHERRY PEARL if anyone has a idea to what the colour is called please PM .


Thanks
G'Day, Just a suggestion...the paint looks like candy apple. This stuff is very nice but scratch it and the whole car has to be repainted. The paint is very well described by it's name. A toffey apple or candy apple is simply an apple coated with a clear layer of toffey. The paint works the same. There is a base coat of silver or gold then the transparent tint goes over top. Extra layers of tint make the colour darker. If it's damaged it's near impossible to match because you can't blend in the colour...it would make the rest of the panel darker. If it isn't candy apple...try House Of Colour.. they sell a very nice colour chart book. It's a bit pricey but what cost is perfection ?
