Now and I have too choose a color soon.
What do you think of lava red pearl.

PPG
 
PPG lists a lava red pearl for Nissan.
Was searching colors and just vetting some ideas.
Also like the blue above the lava as well.

Just repaired a 2017 Toyota Camry ....3T3...2 stage.....nice color !

How about the stock Solar Red '68 Color. Nice color and you'll have no negative comments about non-stock color! Look at my Son-in-Law's which we finished in 2016.

Do yourself a favor....and spray base color for coverage ...let flash with good air movement for 1 hour ....then Clearcoat....probably 4 coats of clear ,if you plan on a cut and buff. Don’t sand the base then clear...even if it’s a solid color....TRUST ME....I just saved your hinney.

Thanks. I am in no way a paint guy.
I may not have understood the process he explained
As I was staring at my car.
