PPG is a good brand but half of that $1200 is going to materials, lol.
So he's not gonna use PPG anyway...

RUN BUDDY,RUN. NO ONE PAINT A CAR FOR $1200 THAT WILL LAST PAST XMAS!!!

Especially a color change, lol.
I'll paint the hood for you for $1200

I agree the 2-tone is killer!

Curious why you didn't try and find the color you like in the first place?
