So I have an 03 z. I am thinking of taking my car to a body shop and painting it like in the photos below. They are photoshoped pics I did. Not too great but you get the idea. So I need suggestions. Should I do it, or just leave it all black. Also maybe should instead of doing the graphics in grey, I could do them in bronze to match the wheels? Any ideas? Suggestions.

 

Spend the extra money and get carbon. You'll thank me for it later.

+1 on carbon or leave it all black.

 

looks ghetto, carbon or all black.

 

+1 Carbon all the way

 

get the jigsaw.

 

How am I suppose to get carbon? Buy all new pieces in carbon and paint it? That would cost way too much.

 

No way, just kit the Carbon ground effects kit, install, and walk away. Don't paint it!! If that's a kit you already have on there, paint it black or sell it for the carbon version. It'll give it that same sort of grayish look you're trying to get. PLEASE what ever you do, don't attempt what you're showing us in those pics! Black, carbon, or nothing.

 

Ok. I was just taking the idea off the new nismo z. I thought it looks hot in that 2 tone, so I was trying to acomplish the same thing.

 

take a look at the bottom part of my bumper


is this kind of your idea?

paint code is K11, its called smoke metallic

 

Very clean. love the paint scheme

 

Now just get your headlights painted a flat black, then it will be complete

 

Thats what I am talking about. Same paint scheme, but on a black car. I think it would be sick! I guess people think otherwise.

 

looks unfinished or primered imo

 

^ if you talking about the silver z, then you are just wrong.


that two tone looks great with the smoked metallic

 

you bought the wrong color car to be two toning, but hey give it a shot, i'd like to see what it looks like.

 

that idea would looks good on that silver Z but just doesnt on black
