Thanks for the comments, guys. I'd be more than happy to get some pics outside, but it's going to have to wait until spring. There's snow and ice all over the place, and all of the pavement has road salt on it. Got to love upstate NY, right?
 Glad you like the rims. I wanted to do something that looked like old trim rings or a polished edge (like on Torque Thrust-D rims), while still keeping the wheel black. The set of "snowflake" style chrome wheels I had just did not compliment this car at all.

It was from a can....automotive touch-up spray paint. I'm attaching some newer pics (with better lighting) to show how the paint looks in person. I haven't polished it yet.

Thanks again, Hummer H4. The license plate bothers me, too...I need to get some gloss while paint to fix it. I should clear coat it, too...decal isn't the highest quality, hence the rip. I need to go back and re-touch some of the other details, too.
theoriganalRiD3R1967 - The paint is Dupli-Color brand Truck, Van, & SUV paint. The label reads: "T0359 Intense Blue Pearl." The cap on the can looks more "washed out" than the actual color does when it's applied----at least at 75°F and low humidity. Last edited by Camaro98; 11-29-2008 at 12:15 AM..

Intense Blue Pearl.
Plasticote's Med. Blue Metallic (don't remember the stock number) comes pretty close to this shade, too.
