Solar Yellow SRT-4

[SolarA853]

Hey everyone- This is my first post over here. The guys at SRT Forums are tired of looking at my car, so I thought I'd come over here and wear out my welcome :D

Anyhow, here's my ride; Solar Yellow 2003 Dodge SRT-4 bought in June 2003, about 7500 miles and a handful of go-fast mods. It kills me, but the car is parked outside for now. The NXT gives it shine like no other, and the depth of color is truly breath taking.

Feedback, good and bad, is welcome. Thanks!

Thanks for the positive feedback! I never knew there were so many variations of yellow paint on cars. My favorite to date is Honda/Acura Spa Yellow Pearl. It's absolutely stunning on an S2000 or NSX.

majik1- Yeah, I'm a (V)opar guy too; The paint on my SRT is pretty flawless on the sheet metal. However, on the front and rear fascias, you can see a little orange peel (see photo)

Any ideas how to smooth that out?

Here's a nice reflection shot. It's hard to get good reflections on yellow paint, but this one worked.

One more shine shot. Almost looks like a shiny Skittle.

I'm just learning how to use this camera. Hope you guys don't mind me sharing lots of pics.

yeah... we-todd-did-racing is giving me grief. It's a free place to store pics, so I guess you get what you pay for. I have some decent pics in my gallery.
