Does anyone here own a Shadow and notice that...

Post by Drew Bledsoe »

The shadow is almost as good as a mono-tone shadow? The cladding seems awfully close to the shadow color.I don't have my shadow yet, just curious on opinion...Tim

I was going to buy a monotone shadow at first and notice the cladding had a different tint from the car. I wanted a true monotone, so I bought a satellite instead.

I definitely think the two-tone cladding is very close to the Shadow color. Obviously it's not as glossy, but it still looks quite nice! Here's a link to an earlier discussion as well...http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=223

I like the Shadow either way (monotone/two-tone). The only way I can tell the difference was when the lighting was in certain areas which made the two-tone more noticable. Mostly though it matched good.Check out that thread linked right above by millster for a good discussion.
