Can you please post bigger pic of your car? I had plans to have mine painted pearl white. Still not sure.
Maybe I'll go with the stock white. Would really like to see a pearl white one if possible.
Thanks

Hi

I will post a photo of mine as soon as I take a new one. I had a major computer disaster a few months back and had everything deleted from it. I don't know if a photo will show the pearl very well but we will see. In most of the prior photos the photos look like a white paint job. Ill see if I can get soom in direct sun maybe that will show up better.

Crebo,

I don't really have a pic that shows the pearl very well. I think resto's pics are much better than the few that I do have. It really is something to be seen in person, and the sun shining on it is what brings it out the best. I really prefer the pearl over stock white. I had always wanted a yellow C3, and when I bought this one, the guy had just painted it pearl from its original color of red. I like it and don't think I will be changing it, although yellow C3s still get my heart racing.

Pearl White

Thanks everyone for the pic's and comments.

Resto the pic's turned out very nice. I spoke to a local paint and body guy in Hesperia,Ca.... He claims it would be hard to match the pearl white...if I were to have any problems. I think he doesn't want to do my door jams ;}

Thank's again Trixie.....CCarlson.

My front bumper has been repainted and you can hardly notice it see last photo. In the right light you can tell but it isnt because of the paint as much as the age of the paint. That paint job is several years old and the bumper is new paint.

Pearl is normally no more difficult to match than any other colors, the only thing I have noticed is that the clear tends to yellow over time and gives a darker cast to the finish. Then you need a good tint man to make spot repairs but any and all repairs are possible. Same as with any finish. If you like it do it!
