Hi Guys,

I know this may have been covered before, but ive seen a few threads about respraying cars so i figured i should ask.

Just want some opinions from everyone on Midnight Purple III (LX0) paint.

I will be respraying my car soon and im really interested in getting this colour as its not only rare but also looks good.

Has anyone seen it in real? If so, what would you rate it?

Thanks guys.

Most dark colours are hard to keep clean.
My old 180 was midnight purple. Looked great, and it's my favourite colour on a car, but yeah, was a bit of a bltch to keep clean.

:laugh: I kinda figured it would, but nothing is as much of a bitch as black. Correct me if i'm wrong but i think it wouldn't be as bad as black.

be prepared for $400 a litre coz i was guna get my car painted that colour bout 6months ago, out of my bugget so i get went midnight purple

:D Dont worry i'm prepared $400 is peanuts if you're happy with what you're getting. I guess you get what you pay for, true?

Is this color just a spray on a couple coats then a few of clear? Or is it a paint 1 color then another or what? How hard is it to come by the tinters?

Nick

    • I believe there was a similar one posted by @duggyphresh. They were re-routing their battery positive cable in the way I am also trying to achieve. Sorry, I’m new to this forum, so was a bit late to the party by a few months and so reignited the old thread, as I wanted to know how they got on with doing it.
    • Wasn't there a thread on this very subject just a few weeks ago?
    • Hi all! Looking to relocate the battery to the trunk of an R34 GTT. I want to do it using as many stock GTR components as I can (including the harness protectors from the 34 GTR that run underneath along the chassis to the engine bay). So far I’ve purchased the battery tray from a 33 GTR, as the captive weld nuts are already there just asking to be used. There is also the slight issue of now having to relocate the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU, which in GTT’s sits right above where the battery will then sit on the tray. Has anyone already achieved this, and if you have any pics that you wouldn’t mind sharing? It would be great to see how others have done it and where you put them, as there are countless holes in the parcel shelf panel to potentially use. Just trying to get some ideas bounced around, and to help uncover any potential problems I may encounter by  my choice of location. TIA for any help!
    • Brand was ard.   I also threw a brand new battery at it and beefed up the wire from the alternator to battery and added an extra earthing point from the battery 
    • Evening all,       I'm replacing some bolts on my RB25 with probolt Australia bolts.       Does anyone know the following, m5 m6 etc 10mm 20mm etc       Coil cover   Cam covers   Plazamaman fuel rail   Front cover (timing cover)   Etc   Any help would be awesome   Or any lists anywhere
