Nissan will cover the cost. How well of job they do who knows

He is talking about the repaint. Basically you want them to do a full repaint and not just spray over it.

Oh ok. Well we wouldn't be paying for it anyways. Nissan would handle it

yep, dealership here said they would take care of it at their level no cost to me. If i get it back and the car looks or the paint feels like crap (my main issue being overspray that causes the good paint on the other panels to look like crap) then I will definitely ask for them to fix it again, if they won't fix it right then I'll be contacting NNA to see what can be done. I'm not seeing this being an issue, but i won't know until they finish.

you know what it is? stretch marks, so stop feeding it so much

anyways, i have a minor paint defect on mine as well, not very visible unless you are up close looking at it so i am not gonna bother to fix it. The respray might come out worse

But it loves to eat domesticated rice at the strip! This way it gets a meal and workout

Blades PG looks good. Saw one the other day at my dealership getting serviced and I was able to compare the difference between the Gun Metallic and the PG.

Thanks! I think the Gun Metallic is a little darker, right? I wish mine was more Gun Metallic.

KaienZ34 · 11-16-2011, 10:39 PM

I think the GM is lighter than the PG and the PG has a bronze-ish hue and the GM has a blue-ish hue.

b1adesofcha0s · 11-16-2011, 10:48 PM

I just wish my car was a little darker gray. I really want it to be the 40th Quartz color

Yes the Gun metallic is darker. I just took my car in the dealer for the paint issue and I took a shot of my car and 09 Z with PG paint that was parked right in front of mine. Both pictures are in same lighting condition so you can tell the difference. The GM is closest to the 40th Z paint. I love my GM.

Definitely love the look of the GM
