ordered custom paint job
I definitely support SPOHN's idea of custom color program. Or unpainted car delivery. My 370z is coming as 2011 model in April and I've already come to the agreement with my dealer to do a custom paint job. Car ordered in black/black will come out as yellow/black.
First, I really want yellow or orange, colors offered by the Nissan are SO BORING for a sportscar. It's a shame I've missed a chicane yellow. Second, the factory paint job is really poor quality, compared what I'm used to. Just to let you know, the price of partial disassembly, paint job and assembly is 3400$. I think it's worth it |

Everyone seems to thing that the OEM paint job is poor quality mostly because it has a fair amount of orange peel. If you don't want that orange peel, just do a bit of wetsanding to level off the peaks and then polish it to perfection and voila; show car paint quality.

I drive an Audi A5 in Aruba blue now, it's sophisticated, luxury, kind of serious but not boring, as is aruba blue color. It's perfect car and color for business, I drive it every day and I never thought it should be yellow or orange. Yellow A5? Yuck. But 370Z? Common, it is not serious at all, it's all about fun, it must shout this loud! And in the world of black, silver, gray, blue and white cars, yellow does this perfectly. Besides, yellow is clearly visible and is a good thing for a fast and assertive driven car. |

Precisely. We are also going to leave some minor black parts of exterior, as well as only partly powdercoated wheels. I don't like blackout wheels on bright car as they are in too big contrast for me.
I hope to have a photoshopped picture of the project soon, will share. |
