Here's a few custom colored Z's. Some you'll like & some you probably won't like but they're definitely out there:

Aha! A nice side-by-side comparison! Thanks for the pics!!!

I've seen these before but never even thought to notice. In fact, I've probably ran into one in one of our meets too! LOL.

No problem. At first, i thought the LA was a clean(washed) CS and while the real CS was just really dirty. lol

Hahaha. Perhaps I was thinking the same thing when I first saw those pics. The color is not so dramatic to notice like a CS vs SS.

I often get asked about Liquid Aluminum as compared to the other silvers, so I went up to the dealer and took these shots:



I like LA the best... but then, I'm biased

well after seeing all the liquid aluminium pics in this thread, I must say it looks great! I think I like it most out of all the silver tones, but I do not like the $1000 extracharge.

Here's a pic of my LA. You can definetly see the difference between a CS and LA. LA looks lighter and more metallic. When I got my system painted the shop told me LA is a three stage paint. A can of paint was $1000. They didn't know that the color was a option.

your car looks great I have the same body kit, you should paint the front "holes" black, it would look much better.

That liquid aluminum looks nice. I should've picked that up instead of the CS.

I know. That's why I have to constantly bump this thread back up to make sure everyone votes. Hmm? Wonder if one of the Mods could make this a sticky so I don't have to bump it up all the time?
