Ztoon 10-31-2010 04:42 PM

Will look forward to seeing her. I wish the 40th was available when I bought my Z back in '09. Would have loved to see my mods on it!

djpathfinder 10-31-2010 05:22 PM

Yeah, an Amuse Vestito kit would look sweet in 40th quartz for sure.

LMBmikeZ 10-31-2010 05:27 PM

definitely a nice touch I like it, seeing it blend in nice to the body like that, thx for pic update!

metz 10-31-2010 07:28 PM

It looks awesome, but that is one thing I am worried about. Not sure how well the paint will stick to the handles and withstand opening (especially the passenger side from rings, etc.)Also the unlock/lock button.

370z 40th 11-01-2010 07:54 PM

if done properly will last as long as the body .i will waranty them as long as you own your car.

370z 40th 11-01-2010 08:12 PM

here i a updated formula, have played around with all the tints this is best to the body that you will find . hood, fenders ,doors, quarters...

look at your bumpers &body you will see the difference between them any questions just feel free more than glad to help..

who ever does your spraying for you make certain that they do a test card to find out the proper air press to spray at if not, give call will be more than glad to help.

remember no cheep products it does affect the out come of the final finish.....

370z 40th 11-02-2010 04:29 PM

370z_40th, you mentioned you have the formula for the rims? Do you have pics of it? Thinking about painting my handles, but to match the rims instead of body. Maybe do the same color to the emblems too, and I like your red lettering to match the brakes!
