It did look nice, but it looks A LOT better with the clear coat on IMO. :tup:

I'm curious about this. I spoke with a bodyshop today about getting a Matte Gray and the guy said he has a method which he incorporates a clear coat in order to protect the matte and prevent it from fading out.

I know this guy is on the ball and very honest from my dealings with him in the past, just curious if anyonje can shed some light on this?

Sorry for the Hijack Docaam, the red looks badasz!

There is a method to making a matte clear coat. I have read about it before but have since forgotten what it was. Matte paint without a clear will fade and be a pain to clean.

WOW!!:eek::eek::eek::eek:

There is a clear for matte the bodyshop showed me two canS they needed to mix it. But I wanted shiny effect as matte gets dirty soon and difficult to clean. I used a special clearcoat which has more shine so atleast it will make any F40 owner think when I will ever park next to a Ferrari that Nissan paint quality is better lol

The shade is very light compares to OEM red and comparing two Nissan shade looks maroon

Niceeeee!

Very nice. Can't wait to see finished product.

Sweet

Looks amazing! Your my inspiration for my Z

Damn doc that looks so fvcking good.....

jesus christ doc your still killing it... i havent been on here on a long time and holey moley you car is absolutely ridiculous!!!!! :tup: i love it

I thinks doc's car has changed it's look more than any other 370 in the world. It's a real transformer, in a good way.

:rofl2: im almost done man, needed few things for some long time, there isint anything else which at the moment I need. how is the jr coming along:tup:

seeking perfection which is hard to get :icon17:

You just need the gtr shifter and a SC kit for both of us.

:rofl2: I have realised that I have exhausted the budget for the Z so after current things won't be spending anymore for a while. But that's how we always think isn't lol

Actually instead of SC I want to do a project car most probably a S30 daddy Z

That's Fing hot dude! I like it so much better than the red patching. I can't wait to see her all put back together.

getting bigger :tup: doing good just tryna feed my fiance healthy food and watching her nutrition although when she has her crave moments she mixes some weird food together :icon14: im just like at least its healthy lol :icon17:

That does actually look really nice... probably one of the nicest sets on this site.

if i had my 370z now, am sure i would go for the same route you did!!

i really admire your passion..

"unique made by passion not by money" :tiphat:

Such a crazy car, I love it.

Seats look awesome man, can't wait to see the Z when it's finished :tup:

I keep coming back to check out those seats. They are so nice!

:iagree::iagree: I have the touring seats and i'd still love to get these. It's a easy choice not to though, as there isn't a good shop to do it or paint/bodywork or any mods for hundreds of miles.

If people want I can get these done as covers here for you guys

Take care of her man, these times are full of memories :tup:

Thanks guys pics coming up tomorrow just this iphone pic for now
