It's a color called "Indy Yellow" it's a pearl Yellow (can't really tell in the pics) it came off a Acura NSX

As for the cost, the paint alone was over $800....and I'm not allowed to say on the labor.... A friend of mine did the work (My Pastor)

Actually no, since it was a black car, I left all the underhood area black, painted right to the edge of the fender under the hood.....looks fine (since it was black)....couldn't get away with it on any other color....


And Thanks Tom
