[GB] GMK CYL Flare | May 12th - June 16th

GMK Flare

Welcome to the GB for GMK Flare!

Using nothing but RAL 2005 (Luminous Orange) and CR Black, this one base kit set was designed to make any set look dull in comparison and be seen across any room it is placed in.
I first saw RAL 2005 on a Lotus Elise Cup 250 Final Edition, aptly nicknamed 'Firefly' by it's owner and have been obsessed over this color.
As a result, this set appeases my obsession over this fluorescent orange that will shift from a bright orange to a red glow under sunlight.
Is this bright? Yes.

Any up to date numbers on this set reaching moq?

Currently don't have enough info to post them just yet since I only have 2 out of 8 vendors reporting them to me. Hopefully numbers should be out by next week through dvorcol's graphs.
