new paint soon, color idea, need opinions
Getting the car painted soon (hopefully) and was thinking about House of Kolors "blue blood red". Supposed to be a super deep, bright red. Redder than red as they describe it. Was thinking about a fine metal flake added to it. Opinions?

Looks like someone watched the "firelimo" episode of monster garage
If you want red I would look at the following:
Kandy Apple Red
Kandy Brandywine
Boyd red (boyd coddington red)

I did see that episode, but saw a car with Blue Blood Red at world of wheels a while ago. I've had this idea for 3 years now.
I do like the Boyds red too, saw it last week on his new show. I just want to know how the metal flake looks on a bright red as opposed to a maroon or kandyapple red.
Anyone have pics of a metal flake in bright red?

Mine has flake in it and honestly I kinda wish it didnt. It looks sweet in either direct sunlight when it shines like a bass boat or at night because then it looks as smooth as glass but in cloudy or shadowy light it makes the paint look ruff
