    Scion's has a paint color called "Cement" they used in '12. I love the color so much I asked the body shop to cut a line on the bumper covers with "Cement" and had the painted the spoiler painted to match the color of the body.
    Let me know what you think
    Best and thanks

    Squirt- is this ment as funny? Dont recognize that, a word ?inside joke?
    Another member asked for pictures. Those I misplaced in the reply. After those go up I'll stick to a few for sales and skip the mod report.
    Thank you, respectfully

    Scion offered a similar color combo as an option for at least one car according to the review on www.
    In bright sun, looking from certain distances and angles the Cement blends into the Sea Glass so that if one didn't know about the 2 colors
    It is almost impossible to see.
    Thanks and best

    I love the cement color but not in the above application. Looks like weirdly shaped primer Color blocking just for fun?

    I personally don't get it, but to each their own.

    I love my Sea Glass, and wouldn't consider sullying it with another color.

    So you're just doing the bumpers, or additional body panels?

    Thanks for the comments. It really does look epic in person. Right on, it does look like primer. Cement does not really look like this does. We are going to get it repainted a better version by Toyota/Scion.
