Nissan 370Z Forum  

body shops that black out fangs and rear exhaust area in NoVa?

After looking at the forums I might do my emblems and door handles too... so I guess I'll get 3 for good measure hehe

I did my fangs with 3 coats of plasti dip and only used up half a can.

Here's some pic whoreage of plastidip.

On the last pic I originally plastdip'd the inside of my rear badge but I liked it so much that I just permanently did it with flat black paint along with debadge. Gives a nice contrast.

D&V color matched my door handles and installed them for me for $120. They did good work for me and I didn't feel like that was expensive. pics are in my album. had it done over a year ago and there has been no fading or chipping. I am a happy customer.

oh I should add I bought a second set of door handles sent them to D&V and they did the work and called me when it was done. I just sold my original unpainted door handles on the forum. End of the day I think I paid $150 for the entire ordeal.

Food is decent, beer is good.

Best part is young college girls in revealing clothing working hard to earn that tip.
