Big thanks to A.J. @ Carbon Signal, Andrew at UAM. Customer Service and quality and price was excellent from both companies, I highly recommend either company to anyone looking for exterior mods. Thanks also to Phelan who helped me negotiate a deal which got me my rims from Cali.

I'll post up some better pics when it's sunny and I have time for a photo shoot, at that point I'll include interior pics and close-ups.

Thanks for looking!

Thanks, I think it's the only Z this colour, at least that I know of.

I first got the idea from seeing DOCCAM's Matte Silver wrap, which looked awesome, but his was a good bit ligher shade i think..

@ GaleForce thanks for fixing the pics for me - repped!

Nice color! But


If you where worried about cleaning your black Z this is going to be worse, Matte colors will get marked up by bugs and bird crap very easily and will not come off for the most part.... There was an article in one of the many import magazines about this....

Thanks for the heads up, there is a clear coat over the matte, but it has a flattening agent on it, so it should be better than naked matte paint. I'm also looking into getting the Matte Clear Bra installed to prevent any chips or scrathes...

Nope it's actually a Porsche Colour.

It's very similar to the Nissan GTR Gun Metallic colour.

I had the two colours sample sprayed side by side and decided I prefered the Porsche slightly better so I went with it and the shop used a flattening agent in the Clear to make it look the way it does.

Does anyone have any opinions on if I should leave the hood exposed CF, or colour match it to the rest of the car?

I think paint to match, unless you can mask off an area and do partial paint/carbon and have it look good.

Are you happy with the body shop so far? Would you recommend them? I need a shop to take my car to.
