TheBlackPearl 08-15-2006, 03:27 AM cant speak for shaddow mica, but bsp is black with like green and purple flakes in it BLAKOUT 08-16-2006, 11:55 PM The mica is a really dark gray. Honestly, from more than 10 feet away I can't tell the difference. I went with the black because I was afraid the gray would come off looking like a dusty black car. Nydheart 08-17-2006, 11:19 AM I was the same way, I thought the black and the mica were very close in colour. I got the mica because it had sirius and radio controls on the wheel. I will tell you though that I think my xb looks green some days but most days it looks grey to black. Since we are talking about colours, does anyone know where I can get some shadow mica touch up paint? Im up here in Canada so it is not a colour that I can find. Thanks! TheBlackPearl 08-17-2006, 03:35 PM i got my touch up paint from the dealer GMANx17 08-17-2006, 04:02 PM Hit up the dealer...I am getting mine this weekend a nail polish size bottle for about $7 or so... Nydheart 08-17-2006, 08:33 PM Yeah I would hit up the dealer except im in Canada and toyota doesn't officially sell the scion here yet. I will check with my local Toyota dealer to see if they can order it in for me. Atomic_tC 08-17-2006, 11:11 PM Shadow Mica was also available on the Matrix, so a Canadian Toyota dealer should have it... Nydheart 08-18-2006, 10:28 AM Sweet, thanks alot Atomic, Ill check it out today :bow: DjEon 08-18-2006, 01:56 PM paintscratch.com ??? I think. StrudelNinja 08-19-2006, 11:01 PM Does anyone have a picture of the mica in light? After clicking back and forth on the scion page I think the mica is almost different and maybe what I want, but I still can't tell. The dealer near me only has a BSP and a salsa to look at. TheRealBoxster 08-19-2006, 11:07 PM I just posted pics today of my shadow mica. Its a great color. Sparkly when clen and polished. Check my post iheartzombies 08-19-2006, 11:58 PM Do paintscratch.com for touch up, they custom mix it to match your car. Dealer touch up never looks the same. Its very crappy. DaToaster 08-20-2006, 03:35 AM i was taking a close up pic of my CF OEM wing a while back i have a BSP, its in the shop now im getting it 2toned http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y281/jtwiz/S5000017.jpg streetdemon13 08-21-2006, 02:33 PM THE DEALER SENT MY TOUCH UP PAINT FREE THROUGH THE MAIL...BUT WHEN I GOT IT IT WAS HALF EMPTY IT LEAKED SOMEWHERE IN THE POST OFFICE I GUESS...HAHAHA |
