depend,s on the show . Can hurt on the most original car award . Can
also hurt on a asking price, when ya sell it . Ifn ya look close tho
at some of the all original car,s paint job,s think ya might even
notice that tho they were painted an OEM color ? A lot of them added
a lil Pearl pigment too the OEM paint . Just ta give it some bounce.
But there is truth in that OEM paint is more desirable when selling
the car . Sincerely Sean
