    SO I already did one SIlver 6.0 into my Baloon White, just finishing my second WAS SIlver 6.0 into VI (done in another week or so), what color should I do the other Silver 6.0 I have coming inbound?

    AND if anybody want's, I can get it custom done for you, as a total package, takes about 8 weeks...uses PPG OEM paint and comes out like it left the factory.

    It may be sacrilege, but I think it would be awesome to do one in TdF or Grigio Silverstone. Not sure how Lambo fans would feel about Ferrari colors though.

    Since you've covered 2/3rds of the Italian flag's colors might as well do red. May I suggest something old school like Rosso Granada and gold wheels paying homage to that awesome Miura SV/J.

    Personally my vote goes to Viola. I bet there's less than a handful of 6.0s in that color this side of the pond.

    Several choices:

    - Yellow
    (Non-metallic)
    IIRC you've had one in your 6.0 stock early this year

    - Oro Adonis (LP 640 color)
    - Smurf Blue (97 Diablo SV blue) .. is it nova blue?
    - Rosso Vik :p ... nice color, wrong name
    - Matt black

    I thought only water based paints were available from body shops in the USA?

    Yes, you are correct.....it is the paint used for the Gallardo line, they are painted in Germany prior to shipping out to Italy for final assembly. The Flagship cars are still painted in Italy by hand about 20 miles from the Factory using the oil based paints PPG, that why when you put a G and a M car of the same color next to each other there off. Repair work/paint on a Murcie in the US does not usually come out well as you have to use the water based stuf...

    BUT, lucky me, living only 70 minutes from the Canadian boarder, the PPG oil base is tiall availabpoe and that's where I go to use the far superior paint product.

    Thanks USA EPA..... "Log live the spotted Owl" !

    Dear Lamborghinisti,

    Ooooh...do that pearl red. I've only seen it in pictures on one SV and one VT Roadster. It's the most super freaky red I've ever seen.

    Monterey Blue (disappointingly!) doesn't exist any more so Rosso Efesto gets my vote.

    $15K to $20K, depending on the color..the cost of the material and the way is applied vary's greatly..the three stage colors are at the top of the mark.
