I think I saw some of those in Dead show parking lots LOL.

On the car I pictured it looks like they began painting the Iris Mist, quit, did the repair and then did the whole car in M. Bronze. Might have red primered the entire car with the Q extensions etc. on there first before the gold. I don't recall seeing that on other cars before, but this one has it factory under the gold.
