Nissan 370Z Forum  

Simota1 need some opinions...

whatever the black you're using right now for the accents, use it for the handles imo. can't go wrong with the 19s either, but why not go aftermarket?

i suggested gloss black for the roof because it gives it a tinted glass roof effect

Is this a joke? You've got one of the best looking red Z's. Why change the color.... and for god's sake, why gold? Meh, I guess to each his own.

yah, i think you should just keep it red and get some 20" black wheels to finish. not that your current wheels are lacking.

gold? really? are you like some geisha warrier? (not sure wat that means either).

Midnight Purple Pearl FTMFW! I painted my 240SX two tone midnight purple pearl and black, it was freaking sexy. Put it into a tree 4 days after painting it. Nothing ever good happens when you paint a car :P The bad thing about midnight purple pearl is that there are 3 versions of it, one for each GTR generation and each one is NOT cheap. Midnight Purple Pearl III on the R34 GTR runs anywhere from $1,500 to $3,000 a quart, and it has to be imported from austrailia. Now you could do it the way I did and know someone that can mix colors and was able to match it quite perfectly.

now... about the purple... as much as i love the color.... i cant picture it on the z.... itll look beautiful probably but i know after maybe a year or so its gonna be a lil to wild for me.... just my 2cents... the reason why i want gold is because i know that as the car gets older i want a color thatll stay timeless with the car you know? i remember when cars where painted like super bright colors and then a few years later it looks wack lol... i aint saying the purple will look wack... but i think its just not my style... bullits comment made me laugh.... the thing about the pimp color or something like that hahahaha dont worry man i aint gonna slam big glitters on the car hahaha.. the matte gold is kool too... but i havent seen any matte paint job last in guams weather... always messes up in a year..... and another reason why i want gold... i havent seen a gold 370z yet

If it was my money, I'd forgo the paint job and get a supercharger to be honest.

But, I still think the Top Secret gold color would look pretty good.
