Metalic & Pearl Paint

[jrocket]

Hi all. I will be getting my car resprayed soon and I have been offered the choice of a metalic or pearl paint. My skyline is currently just factory black but the panel shop says that they can redo it with a metalic in the black or some pearl if I want at no extra cost as its an insurance job. Has any one got some pics of some sweet black metalic or black with pearl paint jobs that they can show me. I just need some ideas on what way to go and which has the biggest wow factor. Or I could prob just leave it factory black.

Hey,

I'm looking for the same thing, mine is factory black and i was thinking of getting it resprayed with a pearl through it, reckon it'd look nice.

Yeah I just need more persuasion as to which colour to go. Black with a metalic will be sweet but maybe i should look to pearls. I sorta want the car to still look black tho.

KH9 is the factory black, which already has a metallic within it.

As for pearls, you would want some examples painted as black will not be too kind in showing the pearl (unless its painted in the clear and not the colour-which changes the appearance outof the sun too)

my R34 is metallic black with purple pearl in it factory.. paint code KV9 from memory

although black is a top colour lookswise, keep in mind that it is a bitch to maintain! and if u do get it resprayed, tell them to put 20 coats of clear!!!
