car colors



I have been thinking of what I should get my rocco painted when I decide 
its time. Currently it is Indiana red metallic, with a peeling clear 
coat, and a couple of small rust spots.
Has any one ever tried midnight blue with metal flake. It would be a 
little more expensive but I would like to see what adding some metal 
flake to the first clear coat would look like. I think it would add a 
bit more depth to the paint, maybe make it look similar to a paint job 
with a couple more coats of paint to it.
Besides the metal flake I was also thinking that adding a white line 
that starts at the front (on the side) and runs to underneath the rear 
quarter window where it angles up, fading to the blue all the way. It 
would be possible, but my fear is that it would be expensive 
(guarantied) and it might not look right on this car (possible, but it 
also might look awesome).

Has any one see or tried anything like this?
