My first problem with such a color is that it's far too noticeable even from a distance. A cop, wife or girlfriend will easily see it in a crowded town from miles away. It's a flashing light. Need a stealthy color.

Then stay far away from Shock. The color is as loud as you can get and it’s just as big of a conversation piece as the car itself.

Yeah, attention grabbing has its perks and quirks.

That's why I bought a radar detector, and I am single. Problem solved.

Can't beat the look of paint. Wraps will always look like a wrap.
