Sunlight showed my neighbor's paint mix was a total FAIL | Auto Body Repairers

I live near this guy who decided to touch up his car's paint himself. He mixed some old cans from his garage without testing. When the sun hit it, the color shifted to a bright purple hue. It was SO obvious next to the original blue. He drove around for days before noticing. I offered to help correct it, but he said it was 'artistic.' Stuff like this makes me glad I do this for a living.

Honestly, "artistic" is a pretty nice way to say he messed up the color match for good. Tbh the sun doing a free custom fade is the funniest part. Ngl I would pay to see that purple-blue hybrid rolling up to a car meet. He really committed to calling it a feature and not a bug.

Wow, guess the sun's the real artist on that custom fade job.
