I am debating on adding the TE stripe in Laguna Seca Blue.... Again the face of the rim will be flat black, lip will be gloss black, bbk caliper will be Laguna Seca blue.....
I was thinking about doing the stripe in Laguna Seca blue, but I think it might be over doing it and it could take away from what I am trying to do. I need opinions

Do it!!!! My wheels have it too, just be careful not to curb a wheel man, I saw one on another z, and where it was curbed it completely took the color off and it made the whole wheel look like garbage! I think its going to be really hard to prep/paint a perfectly even stripe around the whole wheel tho

Zquicksilver- I agree, I went to the shop yesterday and we talked about the TE stripe amongst other things, and I decided against it. I really want the blue on the caliper to pop, and by implementing the TE stripe it might take away from the look I am trying to achieve.
RedlineAZ- about 2 years ago some retarded lady, who deserves to have her license revoked, reversed into my driver side quarter panel while I was parked across the street of my wifes (girlfriend at the time)house. Long story short, I took it to a club memebers shop and they fixed, or should I say did a cover up. The shop the car is presently at noticed the body lines from the quarter panels were missing/ blended out, the fender was slightly off symetrically, and to top it off they used a cheap spray on primer ( that never cures), so they needed to reprimer and now rebuild the rear quarter panel adding the body lines that were taken away.....
phreaktor- paint came out great! In for pics on the front brace
On another note....When I went to the shop yesterday, aside from the rear quarter panel everything is pretty much ready for paint. The front and rear were reblocked and all the lines and angles were sharpened to really enhance the overall appearance.
