Custom Paintjob (ideas ideas!)
Hey! i'm new to the boards, i've been crusing the site for a while as a guest but now that i'm going to be a owner I figured i'd better sign up!
Basiclly I plan on getting a Z off of a slavage title and fixing it up. When the final day comes and its time to paint I want something specail.
Basiclly, I can't make up my mind between blue or black, so I was thinking 1 of 2 things.
1. Lund CTS Style - Top Black with black tinted windows, bottem blue.
2. Bugatti Veyron Style - Blue body with a Black Band that went from the grill then panned up the car and ended up takening up the entire back.

Too much?

My favorite Blue is the 350Z blue but I may go with porsche blue, that sounds like a good idea. Anyone know how many quarts of paint go into one coat? (so i can get an idea of how much I'll need)

Here's another color: Emerald Black. This isn't a very good picture; it was taken after the car was totalled, but you get the idea...

TVR Speed 6 Style. That green/red fading "spice" color would look nice on the Z.

How 'bout one of the House of Kolor Kameleon paints. Like silver to green, or red to gold?
