Painting the NISMO?
I'm about to purchase a black NISMO 370 and I'm wondering if it would be worth it to paint it? I like black but my last 3 cars were black and its getting old fast. I really would prefer it to be white. Is there a certain package of quality that I need to aim for and what ball park range would that cost? Thanks for your help.
Its too hard to pass up the deal I got for what I was offered and NISMO Z's don't come around too often if you know what I mean. |

I think you should just leave it. It's not worth it to spend 3k for a paint job. You'll like the black as you get used it. I really wanted a white z, but got the black one. I don't regret a thing.

The dealer can just find you a white one if thats what you want. When dealing with car salesmen never settle for anything. Make them get you exactly what you want. When I bought mine all he had was a red one so I made him find a PG cause thats the color I wanted.

why not wrap your car with vinyl?if you just want to change color without affecting the original paint.just my two cents.

Oh, you didn't buy it yet. If you didn't buy it, then find EXACTLY what you want. If you pass up on this deal, there will always be other deals that come along. On the day I bought my car, Danny from Fontana called me and told me 2 white ones came in... Just wait it out if they don't have exactly what you want.

Don't exaggerate man. It's $700 to buy a full wrap for the car and $1000 for labor which will take a whole day. And the material btw is 3M quality.
