don't you have your own page ?
Inspired by a smoke show colored Dodge Challenger? :)
I have the boat ordered with Randy. I was actually aiming for a little darker gray than how it turned out but happy with the color. It's called Tin Man gray on the gel coat color chart Randy provided to choose from. Next darker is Storm Gray if I recall correctly. There were a couple lighter also. I think Pelican gray and another. Looking forward to seeing it come together and some warmer weather here in NC.Quote:

Oops. My g23 nautique. Battleship grey.
Leadfoot was an F150 color and was available in the Raptor too. This one is Lithium Gray. Only made one year for model year 2021 with the 250’s. It’s very similar but this one is a little bit darker.Quote:

Some progress pics. Interesting how he forms the front radius when glassing the top and bottom together. Randy wasn't a fan of my top stripe design at first, but now says he sort of likes it. See how it looks with some color soon. Stripes will be gray marble, with black outline, and a red stripe for some color.
