Nissan would have to charge an extra $500 for the special paint.

Actually, that is not a wing; that is the device alien spaceships use to attach the chain to pull the car to the mothership!!

Purple is lame IMO. I don't see why someone doesnt do a silver two tone similar to some of the paint jobs that Chip Foose does. The combos he dreams up look absolutely sick. I would rock a liquid aluminum/silverstone with a lemans pinstripe in a second

Uuuh......a little too barney-esque for my tastes, might look better with black or gold rims though.

Send me some reference and I'll work up another render with that scheme.

Here's a link to the Grandmaster that Foose did. Notice the dark silver with orange pinstripe that separates a lighter silver. I would love to see a render of that, Q.

This was just a quick slap on of some two tone. No stripe and I wasn't really sure where to draw the division of color along the car. Chromed the wheels as well. Keep in mind my lighting rig is not the same as those ref pics. Still, gives you an idea.
