Talk me out of painting my Nismo...or NOT?

motoextreme · 01-11-2010, 01:04 AM

Thanks guys, most certainly will on all accounts.

As far as the hood, last I discussed I thought it was going Flat black with just the vents exposed in carbon but the pictures don't prove that so I'll be sure to ask that too. At this point I just want to drive it again, really miss that part more then anything...

Soon enough I suppose.

Thanks again for the compliments so far.

Definitely looks good.

more

please

that would be cool, paint the hood but expose the CF at the vents.... fade in the flat black at the end of the vents... some G guys did it.. looks really good

I just landed from Hong Kong about 2 hours ago, so damn tired! They made a few more changes to the scheme but its in the booth as we speak! I know I know...taking a while but worth the wait. Still need to install the brakes, smoke the tailights a little, shifter, shift know, carbon under the hood, coilovers, stock cats back on....geeez....thought I was done!

At least the rest is all a quick fix.

Walked out of a restaurant when I was there and this guy came buy, car sounded pretty wicked, wish I would of got some other shots. There was SO many nice cars out there.

We added gloss to the roof and a little on the rear hatch.

Hard to tell under the plastic but ITS SO CLOSE!

Adam, it looks verryy tight - bet you cant wait to get everything fitted up

Marco_xyz · 01-13-2010, 08:03 PM

Looks nice!! Haha Mike must of gave you that idea since he fell in love with the way he did mine with the cf trimming along the hatch!!

your gonna love it, it flows really well with the rest of the car! When they did mine, i also had them paint the top trim of the door so it matches the flow of the hatch.
