Default Paint Job Complete. Day PICS inside.

got my car back. If some of you were following my paint job thread, this is the final pics. No pics were edited. just with a point and shoot camera.

so far, i love it. The pics don't do it much justice. looks a lot wetter and glossier in person. some pics, it looks cloudy but that's just the pearl. for some reason, my camera can't capture it very well. But it looks grey in the day time(sunny days). Virtually no orange peel (a tiny bit on the smaller lower areas of my front bumper).

But all in all, i'm very happy with the look. it was the glossy, non oem paint i was looking for. I will have to do a hand glaze on the paint to take off the buffer trails.















Here are pics to show the pearl. it's hard to capture the gloss and pearl at the same time with my camera.

Looks great. To me it's one of the cleanest Z's on the site. Subtle front bumper/lip, tasteful yet aggressive wheels, lowered just the right amount. A+ sir!

Looks like a SB Z, only much more glossy....great job! I wish mine still shined like that.

What lugs are those?? That is a great solution to those with aftermarket wheels who remove them frequently and hate scratching the lug-wells.

Edit: Got it, Volk Formula lugs

The camera must not be capturing anything I guess, because it just looks like a nicely detailed SB or MB Z

Can't really tell from pictures. I would love to see it in person to see if there's any orange peel at all.

But holy smokes those are some of the dirtiest tires i've ever seen lol.
