Anyone Done A Re-spray Yet?

[DECIM8]

Heres my advice, Stock colours some nice air/gas suspension cause you aint going to mountain climb that thing and order some nie 20" Sp1 proffessors tor perhaps lm1 nismo rims keep it jap spec with sex spec feel..

They hydros or air setup is a must in that car it would look great.

Super sports cruiser??? HAHAHAHAHH mate its no AMG merc or M6 BMW think you gettting a bit ahead of yourself.

At the end of the day its a 4 Year old Japanese sports car much the same as the 350z. Sure the newer G37 may be a bit more upmarket and if I had one of these there is now way I would do the paint etc but at the end of the day its just a Nissan. Soon as prices of these drop even further there will be alot around with big chrome wheels, paint, leather re-trims etc etc. Ita all about how you do it all and how it looks as a package.

Im not going for an in your face paint scheme, stupid looking Tempe rims or anything. Its about being subtle but different.

Good taste is purely a matter of opinion: what one person loathes, another may love... Have a sense of humour: he was only having a dig for fun... For the record, I like the idea of the colour fade, but I wouldn't go larger than 19's myself, and they would have to be a non-chrome rim with polished lip and dark centres. That's my idea of good taste, but I'm usually pretty conservative when it comes to styling of cars...

The fade is out the window, the car is now going to be one colour.

The colour is based on the standard blue with more purple pearl and slight other changes.

Colour will be changed in boot and door jams as well and engine bay left standard.

What happened?

I think you mentioned in another thread that you gave it a shot. any pics? I was looking foward to it.

Out of curiosity, are you sanding back the existing coat and how far? Bare metal?

Cheers

[CHO50N]

Yes sanding back existing, no not bare metal there is really no need. not one scratch on the car or even a stone chip!

Just did not look right, easy to make a show car look right but not suited to a street car.

How hard is it to respray yourself a side skirt? The corner at the parking station was a bit too tight.... Or does anyone know approximately how much smash repairers charge? What a bummer of the day...
