Hi guys, which black do you's recommend for my black and silver scheme that I'm going for? My zed is chrome silver and awaiting for my Nismo V2 front bumper to arrive and it's off to the painters I'm considering respraying the whole car a dark silver colour, (even darker than silverstone) and then the black on the nismo v2 kit. I think it'll look sick as

 

Interesting....cant wait for pics

 

don't hold your breath, front bumper is still in Japan and they are trying to work out how to get it here without me having to sell a kidney or two

so yeah what paint name / code do you guys use for your blacks?

 

Which year is your Zed?

 

2003, roadster

 

Then expect it to look like this

 

 

I love those Volk TE37's. I bought a set of those for my Z and put the Volk GT-C's I had on Z on my G35 coupe. Man, I drool of those rims every time I get in and out of my car.

 

two tone, nah man, dont do it.. IMHO of course..

Show me a two tone lowrider.. or one w chrome wheels...
theres a million.


Now show me a two tone Lambo
a two tone Porsche
a two tone Ferrari...

aint gna find one, and if you do, it would still look better one color, especially w kit on it to busy it up. My body kits busy as hell, but thats precisely why i went flat black, to hide it back up.



ID keep it all one shade my man.. IMO of course..
i feel you on the darker gray tho.. i always thought silverstone should have been darker.. even the G35s from 05 were darker.... (my car is silverstone..under the wrap. )

 

quick question, what kind of tires are on that roadster? me gusta

 

Two-tone is wackjuice!

 

my guess would be bfgoodrich gforce t/a kdw

 

Yeah I've got those tyres currently on my roadster. The tread pattern is pure sex.

 

So even if I go same colorado for everything, I would still want to paint the mouth of the bumper in black. What do people use, I've seen people mention magnetic black? Should I do it in normal gloss or a satin/matte black?

 

Go for it!!

 

dont do it

 

That's fugly winchman. Those zeds need to DIAF!!

 

It can look really good, exhibit A:

 

Are you looking to paint the ground effects in black and rest of the car in dark silver?

If so, I have the similar setup, but mine is red and black.

 

The pink one is a member of these forums; he's around here somewhere. It apparently used to be blue...
