Crazy! I'd give it 4.5/5. Still unbelievable how dip coats have progressed over the years from "Anything as long as it's matt black" all the way to this beauty!
Definitely a solid 4, I think this mixture is too heavy to the blue and not the purple. But the Gold alloys definitely set this paint off. Nice work 🔥👍
@@otallono Ford has a patent on the Mystic Chrome and has sued people in the past for copying it. If imagine that Nissan has something similar for this colour considering how rare it is .
When I saw the title, holy Grail of factory colors, I was like. If it's not midnight purple 3 I'm going to be disappointed. I was not disappointed, this is amazing!!!
I would've rebranded it "Midnight Blue 3", seems like it's Blue with Purple accents etc.. Probably just me guys. Beautiful color though 😍. It gets a 5 from me..
If I'm rating based on its similarity to actual Midnight Purple, I'm going to have to say 2.5-3 out of 5. But if I'm rating based on how aesthetically pleasing it is, I'd have to say 5 out of 5 because I love how it looks
@@SubieNinja the luster of the finish is what adds the darkness and depth of the colour overall. It's close to Midnight Purple but it lacks the darkness and depth that makes it Midnight Purple. From what I've seen in pictures, as I've never seen it in person, at an angle it should appear to be almost black and when viewed straight on it should be a deep dark purple shrouded in a sheer black topcoat. It might not appear like that in person, and as I admitted that I have not seen it in person, but compared to the image they show in the video, they missed the mark as it's a more vibrant blueish purple covered by a deep but still vibrant purple. And that doesn't detract from the fact that the outcome of the colour is still absolutely beautiful and I'd happily cover any vehicle with it.
Definitely 4.5 out of 5. I also think that this is conceivably the closest you can get with a dip coating without it being a factory finish. Awesome job!
I knew from the very beginning I was going to like this color - purple is my jam. This is a strong 5 - I don't care about it matching the actual MPIII - but it does well enough at that too. Fantastic!
4.5/5 I think you nailed it! I saw some ambers on the car (not a lot) but they are there. I clearly saw the amber at the 4:08 mark in the glass beaker. Amber, green, blue, and purple hues are all there. This one is great, good job guys!
Perfect colour match tbh Fonzie. Having owned a Midnight Purple 3 R34 for 4 years i would say that was 90% Accurate. Knowing how hard it was to colour match you could spray it 10x and get diffrent results so seeing how good that looks in peelable paint is awesome! Great Job!
Love it! My rating is going to be 4️⃣. I feel like having a white base to start with instead of black, would’ve made the purple POP out more. IMO!! the color still came out amazing, but i personally feel like the purple could’ve been brighter/ more vibrant.
White base wouldn't have worked as this was a colored pearl. A white base would have required an interference (white powder) pearl. Thanks for watching though I do appreciate it!
@@dipyourcar appreciate if you guys can answer my question that I've asked few times already. When doing plasti dip on your wheels, do you just spray over the lug nuts? What happens to the dip on the nut if you have to remove your wheel to rotate your tires? Will it peel off?
@@allboutthemojo dude just CALL THEM. this is a business, not just a TH-cam channel. They have a customer service office. TH-cam comments is probably the worst way to contact them.
@@allboutthemojo in my experience it holds fairly well until a socket or anything that will start the peeling process makes contact. I personally buy a set of lugs I like and go that route or you could have them powdered or painted.
id say its 3, its more like midnight blue tbh. this color is primarily blue with purple and amber shift compared to the midnight purple that is primarily purple with blue and amber shifts. id still love to see it in person though knowing how the camera most likely does not do the paint justice.
Oh we are redoing the Cayenne in this color! Looks absolutely amazing. I was a little concerned about Gabe's interpretation of 90° for the horizontal surfaces but I guess we can let it slide this time. Hope you guys are doing well. Jeremy
always enjoyed this channel. so relaxing. That color is my favorite of all time. You guys hit a nerve lol. For the first time I'm not wowed by your products. I am completely and utterly IMPRESSED!!!! GOOD JOB FELLAS
One of my only gripes with this channel is dirty window glass, wheels and tires. Super clean glass and some tire wet would make those awesome paint jobs pop even more. Going to Dip my car and truck but you just keep dropping such awesome mixes I just can't decide! Oh yeah I'd give that a 5 and add it to the list of colors that crush.
This is definitely an absolute beautiful color and I would love to see you add this pigment as a kit to your site. But it's close to midnight purple 3 in my opinion but slightly too much blue it would probably get a solid 3.8/5 to a 4/5
I think this is about as close as we will ever get to an off the shelf Midnight Purple 3 from an outside source without getting in some legal trouble. That's an amazing colour and I think that Fonzie and the Dipyourcar crew nailed it!! It did not disappoint. Now for the next challenge: Ford MystiChrome!!!
4 On the midnight purple 3 front it's just a little too bright, need a little more midnight. The color tone is spot on. As a color I would mix this with the teal to blue pearls and holographic flakes. Loved it!
Rate 4/5. Thank you for doing this video, I’m impressed with this particular paint colour. The R34 has been my one true favourite car my whole life, I can appreciate seeing you feature this beloved colour as well as you have. Keep up the exciting content my friend! Cheers.
That is by far my favorite color you guys have done ever right in my wheel house I’ll give it a 4 only because the greens don’t pop as much as the original but it is so so close good job guys love it
4/5 - like it a LOT ... might sound weird but I'd like to see it over a white base coat just to see what it would look like. But yeah love blue's and purples super nice job as always Fonz 😉 👍
Fantastic. 5/5. But $185 additional for just the pigment per gallon of sprayable material is over the top for a dip job. I am glad you did it to show what's possible.
wow!!! ill rate it 4.9 because its an awsome color the .1 down is if you can notice between the original gtr color and this one you get about 5% stronger blue on direct point of view. Nothing to be noticing right away i had to find a few videos of the gtr color to really notice , i do am a fan of this color since it came out :) huge huge props on the job its professionnal and really pleasing to the eye!!! cheers
Yes sir! This is spot on. Definite 10 for me. I think you guys need to do more experiments outside the box and with auto flex more. This color with auto flex on a r35.. Ohh man. 💯 Good job Fonzie and team DYC.
I'm impressed. Midnight Purple III is in my top 3 favorite colors for a car. 4.8, because I think it needs to be a shade or two darker, at least the blue.
I think you guys hit it super close, like 4.8/5. Looks just a tad bit too much blue for me personally, but I think this is the color I’m going to do on mine
Woooooow!! So close!!!! Like a 4.5 outa 5 for me, and it just glazes the RS7 so nicely! Looks like the top coat is 3 feet thick!!!!! It's the car version of a candied apple, just not red!
Solid 4.5 guys. I dig it. It’s not perfect but for someone wanting something really close that only the sharpest of eyes can discern from the real thing, this is the one. Love what you’re doing. Keep it up 😁😁😁
Great result for what it is. I'd give it a 4. I wonder if it would be even better with that "top end" AutoFlex finish (I think that's what it's called) for the extra gloss and clarity of colours
Nice one! I give it a 5 for sure. I'm not familiar enough with the MP3 factory color to know how perfectly you hit the match, but this is a great look IMO.
MP2 is the best paint color of all time, MP3 has that amber in it and it brings it back to most all color shift bases because of it. I like MP 2 so much I have used it on custom PC rigs, wheel base components, things in the shop, tool boxes etc.
I'm gonna go 4.5 because I don't think it's exact, but I do love it! As a side note. I think you should paint the car's emblems to match the wheels. That little bit would bring the whole effect home for me.
That is sick man. Damn close to the original bro , props on that👍. As an R34 fanboy I've done a lot of research on this color specifically , the original midnight purple 3 paint goes down as follows( don't own a r34 midnight purple 3, yet, so guys please correct me if I'm wrong) it's a white base coat followed by a lighter blue, somewhat like the Bayside blue , then the pearl and clear. I'm no expert on paint by any means but I do believe that if you're willing to do this again and do it in that specific order you will have a bang on 95-100% color match.
I'd give it a 4, not exact but man, this might be enough to get me to dip my car again. I haven't had it dipped in about 7 years, but this has me VERY tempted!🔥🔥🔥

this is about as close as we can get without getting in some copyright issues with Nissan. 4.9/5 for me.
my thoughts exactly
@@MattyMacFarlane lol don't think they own a color combination. And it's not even paint anyway.

are you basing that on color alone or is the shine/finish playing a role?

Nice color. I recently retired from a paint factory after 44 years. We made paint for all the auto plants in the US. I must miss watching paint mixing

I knew from the very beginning I was going to like this color - purple is my jam. This is a strong 5 - I don't care about it matching the actual MPIII - but it does well enough at that too. Fantastic!
The whole purpose is to rate to on how close it is to MP3, not rate it on how it looks.
@@club3g82 - that's why I put the qualification in there - so it's known that I like it both for that and in general. 😉
@@club3g82 Lmao fr
I second this!!!😍💜😍
It's SO CLOSE to the actual Midnight Purple 3 that it's astounding! It is absolutely GORGEOUS and I love it!!
100%. Nailed it. 5/5. Do love a bit of purple, always looks regal. Love it. Would have love to see it with black wheels.
4.5/5 I think you nailed it! I saw some ambers on the car (not a lot) but they are there. I clearly saw the amber at the 4:08 mark in the glass beaker. Amber, green, blue, and purple hues are all there. This one is great, good job guys!

on a sclae of 1 - 5 this is a solid 10! love it so much!!!
Love the color. Definitely a great color. The only thing that would send it completely over the top would be a really high metallic additive
Amazing color paint, love so much
I love this color! This is the first time that I can remember, that the color was noticeable from the second you started spraying. It looks awesome!
I agree ... from the very first spray, I can tell if it's going to be god or bad! LOL This was a 5!
This color gets a solid 5/5. One of the best blue/purple blends I'v seen.
5 hands down, I knew it when you poured the color in the clear! Absolutely beautiful color!!
When you poured the little bottle into the clear that was beautiful when it started swirling. I love the mixing shots
Very nice color but I do agree that it should be sprayed over 3 different base colors, black, silver and white to see how it changes the color shift
That's a lot of work and paint.
always enjoyed this channel. so relaxing. That color is my favorite of all time. You guys hit a nerve lol. For the first time I'm not wowed by your products. I am completely and utterly IMPRESSED!!!! GOOD JOB FELLAS
I’d say it’s a 4 on the match scale. I’d say it’s a solid 5 on who cares because it’s beyond gorgeous! Love it!
One of my only gripes with this channel is dirty window glass, wheels and tires. Super clean glass and some tire wet would make those awesome paint jobs pop even more. Going to Dip my car and truck but you just keep dropping such awesome mixes I just can't decide! Oh yeah I'd give that a 5 and add it to the list of colors that crush.
I’d say a 4. It really close but, not quite there yet. Looks absolutely amazing as always though!
There is a little too much blue looking straight at it imo, but it's damn close
the rating is 9000 ...... that color is fire
This is definitely an absolute beautiful color and I would love to see you add this pigment as a kit to your site.
But it's close to midnight purple 3 in my opinion but slightly too much blue it would probably get a solid 3.8/5 to a 4/5
I LOVE this color. Great stuff.
I think this is about as close as we will ever get to an off the shelf Midnight Purple 3 from an outside source without getting in some legal trouble. That's an amazing colour and I think that Fonzie and the Dipyourcar crew nailed it!! It did not disappoint.
Now for the next challenge: Ford MystiChrome!!!
my favourite ive seen so far as a relative newbie to the channel. Blue and purple are my favourite colours...
Definitely a color I’d chose for my car. I love deep blues and that purple just makes it better.
4/5. You nailed the color palette. But I personally think it’s too heavy on the blue. But good job getting that amber color! Actually, 4.5/5
The moment you started stiring, Batman! Came to mind. Then boom! Total different colors. Amazing stuff
4.8 for sure. Going to do this To my car come spring. Best color dip yet I think
this is my favourite so far 5/5. if i ever get a car painted it'll be this color.
4 On the midnight purple 3 front it's just a little too bright, need a little more midnight. The color tone is spot on. As a color I would mix this with the teal to blue pearls and holographic flakes. Loved it!
Nailed. IT! i need this in my life now.... saving this video as a reference for the future! Thanks Fonzie
Its a solid 4 out of 5 as far as match goes. HOW EVER! I love it and I want it!!!!
Rate 4/5. Thank you for doing this video, I’m impressed with this particular paint colour. The R34 has been my one true favourite car my whole life, I can appreciate seeing you feature this beloved colour as well as you have. Keep up the exciting content my friend! Cheers.
4:08 you can really see the orange/amber hue on the right side of the container. That's the off angle color mnp2 and mnp3 shifts to
Solid 4, looks great!
WOW that looks amazing. It is very very close to the original Purple III. Crazy color I LOVE IT!!! Great content guys keep it up please.
Definitely gonna keep this color in the back of my mind!!! LOVE IT
I had no clue I needed this until now. And believe I need this. Nastiest 96 Impala SS in Florida with that Dip on it. 💯
5 definitely blue is my favorite color so it's hard to impress me with it and you nailed it brother great job and great color
You did a good job with the blue.8 of ten
Black to midnight purple is what I like to see.10 of ten.
Midnight purple and deep cranberry pearl are my favorite colors. Simply amazing
That's a very solid 4 and at some angles possibly even higher.. came out awesome.
I would give this a five!!! So Beautiful!!
Sick! I love these OEM+ colours!
That is by far my favorite color you guys have done ever right in my wheel house I’ll give it a 4 only because the greens don’t pop as much as the original but it is so so close good job guys love it
This is the color that convinced me to buy your products I think my z3 would look absolutely amazing with it
4/5 - like it a LOT ... might sound weird but I'd like to see it over a white base coat just to see what it would look like. But yeah love blue's and purples super nice job as always Fonz 😉 👍
I'm a sucker for a good blue/purple shift and I think this one nails it - a solid 5
Fantastic. 5/5. But $185 additional for just the pigment per gallon of sprayable material is over the top for a dip job. I am glad you did it to show what's possible.
from all the shifting colors I've seen this one so is the coolest the way it changes and the color's are so subtle 5 out of 5
I will say a 5 absolutely nailed it looks incredible
You could see it when you were in the paint booth changing colour 👍👍👍
wow!!! ill rate it 4.9 because its an awsome color the .1 down is if you can notice between the original gtr color and this one you get about 5% stronger blue on direct point of view.

This is actually in my favorite section of colors. I love dark wine-like purples and reds.
4.5/5 turned out good. I would like to see a Sapphire blue with metal flake, with a silver colorshift
I'm impressed. Midnight Purple III is in my top 3 favorite colors for a car. 4.8, because I think it needs to be a shade or two darker, at least the blue.

That is definitely 10 screw the 1-5. You knocked this one out the park bro. Definitely think I’m gonna do me E36 sedan M3 like this.
5 because I prefer your color best! WOOF! I prefer the dominant blue. Would love to see this at night under lights.
Woooooow!! So close!!!! Like a 4.5 outa 5 for me, and it just glazes the RS7 so nicely! Looks like the top coat is 3 feet thick!!!!! It's the car version of a candied apple, just not red!
4.7/5 - love the blue/purple shift, looks awesome on the RS7, especially against the dark gold alloys.
Solid 4.5 guys. I dig it. It’s not perfect but for someone wanting something really close that only the sharpest of eyes can discern from the real thing, this is the one. Love what you’re doing. Keep it up 😁😁😁
Great result for what it is. I'd give it a 4. I wonder if it would be even better with that "top end" AutoFlex finish (I think that's what it's called) for the extra gloss and clarity of colours
Whoa that’s a lot of orange peel. Never understood why so much orange peel coming out of that badass spray booth. Unbelievable
This is Midnight BLUE 3! Gorgeous!!!
It needs deeper purple tones to be called Midnight Purple 3.
A solid 4 for MPIII and a solid 5 for MBIII.
I think you hit it! 4. Can’t stop watching it show it’s beauty
This color is bang on! Absolutely marvellous! I think we will put this on our 350Z. Thanks for finding something new Fonzie and sharing it with us.❤
I would say you guys nailed it again. Looks sharp
Stunningly gorgeous. Definitely catch the amber/auburn on the acute angles.
I'd say it's pretty spot on, I've seen this color on an R34 in my hometown and this looks bang on!
As far as I'm concerned it's beautiful! Thank you for the presentation.
Love the look 4.5. I do not know anything about the Nissan color. What has been done looks good and works well.
Nice one! I give it a 5 for sure. I'm not familiar enough with the MP3 factory color to know how perfectly you hit the match, but this is a great look IMO.
5, my favorite color yet! Beautiful!
Gorgeous 5/5 maybe the blue is too blue compared to factory midnight purple but it's super close and I love this!
Not usually a fan of purple but this came out better that the original color for my tastes. Well done!
5, you nailed it. This is my favorite color in the world.
MP2 is the best paint color of all time, MP3 has that amber in it and it brings it back to most all color shift bases because of it.
I like MP 2 so much I have used it on custom PC rigs, wheel base components, things in the shop, tool boxes etc.
I'm gonna go 4.5 because I don't think it's exact, but I do love it!
As a side note. I think you should paint the car's emblems to match the wheels. That little bit would bring the whole effect home for me.
Absolutely awesome! Really love the color transitions
5 Pretty darn good!
Nice color, 4.5/5 for the midnight 3 comparison. And a solid 10 as a stand alone pigment.
That is sick man. Damn close to the original bro , props on that👍. As an R34 fanboy I've done a lot of research on this color specifically , the original midnight purple 3 paint goes down as follows( don't own a r34 midnight purple 3, yet, so guys please correct me if I'm wrong) it's a white base coat followed by a lighter blue, somewhat like the Bayside blue , then the pearl and clear. I'm no expert on paint by any means but I do believe that if you're willing to do this again and do it in that specific order you will have a bang on 95-100% color match.
5/5 Well done! I'm not big on purple cars but that looks amazing on the Audi.
I don't care what the original color was supposed to be.... that's a stunning color.... well done. 5/5
I'd give it a 4, not exact but man, this might be enough to get me to dip my car again. I haven't had it dipped in about 7 years, but this has me VERY tempted!🔥🔥🔥
By far this has been the most beautiful color that I have seen!
I give it a 5
This is beautiful. Please sell as a kit!
I'd give this a solid 5! Beautiful color with awesome color shifting. I can't wait for the next video.👍🏼💯
It's a 5 for me. I wasn't expecting it to be so vibrant but it lived up to the original.
