Just Painted My R32

[Xicon]

Hey guys rather new to these forums and these cars but I have just spent my spare time this week painting my R32 and thought I would post up some pics I took today .

Started out looking like this on saturday

Came out today like this in the booth and then outside

Heres the colour in the shade

It in the sun

and the bonnet

I still have the side skirts bumpers etc to fit up and once done I will post pics

I realy enjoy doing import cars as theres a little more fredom when it comes to painting them I haven't done the front bar yet as I am putting a larger cooler up front to fill the gtr bumper hole but once thats done the car is finshed and then its time to sell this one then start another R32 more ideas I would like to use.

Thanks for the comments the colour is a ppg viberance range colour .Its basicly a red candy with pearls in it .The bonnet was done in black then the red candy and the car was done in a pinky red with the candy over top .

The sticker is not a sticker its actauly painted on but I am not overly sure on it but I wanted to do something different with the bonnet .

I do like what I have done but it was more of a test for myself and a start for a my future directions .

I want to start doing different paint jobs using different stuff and grahpics etc

heres the nismo in the sun

Nice mate! Looks very similar to the colour of my old r33 (candy, blood red in avater)

Must warn you though...candys fade horrendously with too much exposure to sun.

looks gorgeous, nice work, id love to see your twist on a midnight purple...i wana re-spray my 34 midnight purple,

[NA_Goodness]

Looks great, well done!! If you want an R33 to practise on, mine needs some new paint...

[Dingus]

Looks good, personally think it'd be better if the bonnet was the same as the rest of the car
