Here's an exterior idea for those of you that are thinking about changing the look of your car/ute.
If I could afford to do this? No doubt!!

Is that the new Jaguar? It has 100% aluminum frame (a first for a production vehicle). So I'm thinking this isn't paint but rather polished aluminum body panels. You would need a clearcoat over that to keep it from oxidizing. The drawback would be that the panels would dent quite easily.

Yea, its not paint. I don't even think it's polished aluminum. To me, it looked liked the hole car was chromed.

edit- Actually, it could be aluminum. There is a thin strip on the bumper that would normally be chromed. It seems a little darker that the rest.

One problem...The bumper should be made from plastic

It will be a paint of some sort.
I don't think even Jag/Ford would tool up to make one off alum bumpers to repalce the plastic ones.
I want to know what, so have pinched a copy of it and will check out the paint reps and get them to try and find out what? how? when? who? where? and why I haven't got any.
