no its pearl white but it blends in with the wood grain and looks nice during the day.

would look better with a little wet sanding and some clear. I personally think the red on a car like that looks kinda rice but nice job on the DIY work

i was thinking about sanding it and clearing it but i dont want to mess it up so im just going to leave it the way it is. is a little rice but i have seen way worse and mine doesnt compare to it. i have a spare one now so im going to see what other colors look good and so far white doesnt at all. im working on a diy on the engine cover but having trouble with that but still going good.

Post a pic from a little further back. I've seen one done with woodgrain paint that turned out really nice.
