I'm a little confused. The SC in the top pic is orange but the one installed looks red. Are they really different colors or are they the same color, just different looking because of lighting/pics/whatever?

Look between the orange and red pics, he mentions that he repainted it.

I think the red was a very nice finishing touch.

We repainted it from the original Gpower orange which is a yellow-orange


We painted it our original theme color which is an reddish tangerine orange.

Depending on the lighting and color balance of the camera, the color can look either orange or red.

Gemballa Blood Orange is the actual name of the color. I paid attention.

I think it would have looked SICK if you had painted it in a black gloss or black wrinkle (textured) finish with polished accents. That would have keep the whole Darth Vader theme intact.

missed opportunity...
He was going for Darth Maul not Darth Vader. Maul had red accents.
