Would look good on the latter , avant garde' desisgns .. Sagaris or Tuscan.
Less resolved on a Griff , or dare i say , Chimaera - which suit something more Trad.

All IMHO of course.

nebular black i think, the major differance is the chrome but looks like it would give a similar effect

I know that its subjective But I couldn't live with the colour, Im not sure it does anything for the beautiful Tuscan lines.

But Hey who am i to say when I have one in Spectraflair !

Wasn't there a silver paint with the same effect previously available from TVR? I seem to remember being put off buying a Tuscan as it was a marmite colour.

It's worth googling as it will give you an idea of how it'd look.

Spectraflair silver is the colour you're referring to, I think?








Personally I think that's one of the flip colours that works really well.

I think thats an amazing colour! However it would have to be kept in very good condition as swirl marks would probably show up quite easily and ruin the effect. As someone saif may not look great on the older tivs - cant make my mind up if it would look good on a cerb or not!

It's rediculously easy to maintain if the house of kolor equivelent on my previous car was anything to go by.

I've got the same colour. Most people don't believe me when I say mine isn't black.
