The photo on the caliper I took was in the shade, the first photo was taken in sun-light, they are pretty close, I had to color match to get it as close as I did....

Still stunning....

I'm not into fakes and prefer to stick with the original colour.

I know it's hard to tell from this angle but this Panamera owner had us polish and clear coat his brake rotors while we refinished his brake calipers.

What are your thoughts? The attached photo is the color we are working on right now.

Reviving the old thread ... did the color hold over the months / years ? From what I've heard, there could be problems with this particular color (there are no such a problems with read, blue, gold etc).
