I wonder how much a paint job like this would set you back... and how far you would get down the road before it would be stickered.

Looks awesome but can you imagine the glare off the bonnet if you were driving towards the sun or bright lights

That would be a real road hazzard. I have seen a powdercoat finish that is very similar to that, which is a 3 stage process. Im sure a metal based paint would give the desired effect. Enough layers and a fair amount of time buffing and a final clear coat. The technology is available.....

At least I can tell the girlfrient to get out to check her hair and make up instead of pinching the rear view mirror haha. Paint it Gunmetal Grey with a C/F roof and ill take it, love the wide body.

Chrome tint would finish it off nicely I think...

I have seen a motorbike all chrome-looking aswell

Not sure if it is the same one but I have seen an all chrome one @ motorplex a few times.

Looks great and rather quick to boot.
