Of course they wouldn't let me drive them since I'm not the owner, but it was cool enough just to see them!

It cost me 8000 to get custom paint color change on my corvette, and most of the body work was already done. Thats for a paint job with 5 coats of clear and wetsanded though, standard repaint would have been 4500, and the corvette is a lot easier to do a color change on than a 370z, because most of the hidden parts are unpainted composite material.

I was tempted to just do a repaint on my black Z to a decent black. The factory paint job sucks.

I figured that resale would just go down though, so it doesn't seem worth it...

wow 50K for that Z and 8k for the vette... they both do look it was worth it... yeah, i guess i would still suggest vinyl wrap... i think somebody here quoted it to be around 2k to 3k... and u get to take it off if you want to sell ur car and no additional depreciation on cost of the car...

Mike 11-12-2009 03:55 PM

yea, I have been thinking about getting the 370 wrapped in flat black. Its starting to get beat up from track use with only 3500 miles on the car (about 1000 on track).
