Hard to match?
 
If I buy a Pearl White 370Z how hard would it be to match a body kit to the cars paint color???

Pearl anything and silver are hard to paint match with pearl being the hardest.

The right painter can match anything. It is a matter of getting the right "flop" in metallics and matching the paint. These typically require more of an area be painted to create a blend. Life is short...you want a white Z? Get a white Z! :driving:

It can be a MAACO or a fully custom shop.. it's all about prep and paint. Pearl will be the hardest, but far from impossible.. and the results will be staggering if done right.

Do your homework, state your intentions of perfection on matching when you talk to whoever, and don't lowball the painter.. it's an investment

There is a nissan dealer auto body shop that says they have done many body kits and paint jobs on many cars. Since they would have the exact paint and offer a lifetime warrenty on the paint job I am really considering.

They quoted me 1500 for install paint and labor. I would pay extra for them to go banannas on the prep work. Doing interior house work its always obvious if someone preped right. I am sure its the same with cars...
