Its not a metal. Its the paint the painter uses. Its called chameleon paint. It is very expensive and very hard to do. It usually fades into 2 or 4 different colors. Blue to green and red to purple are very common paint schemes done.

I think it's the paint not the metal. I"m around body shop people with my job and they say that it's a special order paint. It's REALLY expensive though from what I"ve heard.

"Pearlesant" paint job. Cars have layers of paint which will cause that illusion. It is not a specific metal. The artists ability to create art by painting, letting it dry, and painting over it.

Almost any polished metal, depending on the light source. But I really think you're looking for an artificial finish, maybe acrylic.
