RE: 07 Warranty complete repaint
I'm still trying to get you some answers, this is not my department and so far these guys don't like getting their toes stepped on so they are not being forthright with info or updating the service records.
Sounds like the rep in AZ may have a small ego problem.

Hate to say it; but that whitish (actually more silvery) tinge is perfectly normal and is caused by the mica in this particular paint when viewed at extreme angles (such as the angles that you shot these photos).
Most people like this effect and every Gold Mist paint job has this same look, and if you compare it to others you will find that they are the same.
Now I know why this never got wrote up and filed properly.
Did you not get a chance to see this paint in the daylight before you purchased the Tahoe?

phoenix,
I have to agree. I cant see much. However, it may be hard for me to see from the picture and maybe it is different in person. But it does seem rather normal to me also!

I was recently taking some pics of Tahoe #1 and it doesn't look like yours. We also have the Gold Mist paint and I have looked all around it in the bright sun light. There are no flaws that I can fine. I will say that in different light conditions the color appears to change. For example, in the garage it looks like a light charcoal, on cloudy days it looks like a light cream color and in direct sun light it looks almost like light silver but no streaks or clouds. By the way we don't have any dents in our hood. I will post the pics of Tahoe #1 when we take some pics of Tahoe#2 in a few days. Maybe you should paint it Victory Red like your Vette, that would be awesome.
