lol yeah i hope so, i know the photos above are Photoshoped so i checked out how it looked like on a GT3 and it still looked sick
I liked how the red looked, well at least on the door jams because that's the only place the clear stayed....it was nice and bright. but i wanted to go with a color that doesn't come stock on a 350z, even though its a different shade of red its still red... hope that made sense lol

lol i know i kinda loss interest in driving it like that, sometimes i kinda liked it but at times i wished it had clear!! it wasnt too bad. ive read stories on here where some guys had the worst luck. I would have to say it was about 90%. I had to modify the latch with spacers so that i can grip better.

I decided on the GT3 RS Signal Green, something different, i love how the color looks in person.
please paint your door pillars this time. 2 tone is for impalla's with tacky owners. that last painter you used sucked so much ***. i painted a car red before i started auto school and my clear coat was uniform all the way around and better than your red paintjob all together. my bondo shrunk on the roof tho and has some pits so it will be redone when i get out of school. but atleast im going to school to learn how to paint correctly.
hope you didnt pay that hack more than a couple g's. make sure to pay twice as much this time around, goin from green to red aint gonna be easy. paint all the jams or its gonna be christmass all year everywhere you go.

Thanks for the support guys, i got the car last week and i am loving the new color! This guy actually took his time and took off all the doors, bumpers, ext. How a real paint job should be done. He did all the door jams and did a really good job, unfortunately with this done we could see what sloppy work the other guy did. There was red paint under my car, exhaust, inner liners, radiator, windshield washer fluid reservoir and other smaller pieces.
I took a weekend and did a few detailing to make sure the red was fully gone! I dont have a decent camera to take nice pictures of the car. i took a few with my iphone. Its really hard to really capture the color. You have to be up and close to the car to see how magnificent the color really is. If you guys have seen a green GT3 you guys know what i am talking about. Here is a few pictures i took with my phone and Photoshop them a lil
Will post better pictures soon!

After i de-greased the engine. Had a lot of dust due to the car not been driven



No really liking the soft focus but ehh lol

Hard to see the MG diffuser on this picture. I didnt install the vortex generators.
