He said the sealer will look just like this pic, won't soak up water but wont shine too much either. Thought about the vinyl but I really dont care about resale, I'm keeping this car for me and maybe my son some day. All carbon is staying as is...
3. Taking the badges and wheels to a powder coater, going all black. He wants 75 a wheel which also includes labor to pop the tires off and on. He will throw the badges in. I MAY get new wheels though but only if I find something this week.
4. Tint was done last week.
5. Headlights are off to San Diego to be blacked out...may or may not do LED's. Wife really likes LED's but I'm still not sure.
I should have it all done in a few weeks, maybe less. Really stuck on the wheel thing. That GTR looks great!
Watch for pics soon and all your help has been great, can't thank you enough for the advice!

That is awesome, but he can't powdercoat your badges. They will melt. I looked up the composition of all the plastic parts, and the only plastic thing on the car that might hold up to the cure oven is the gas cap.
