Default New painted pics of my Z

Well I just got my Z back from the body shop yesterday. They painted my front and rear bumpers (front bumper had lots of little stone chips and they painted my kaminari lip) - (rear bumper had a couple scratches) They also painted my nismo wing, shaved all the rear badges and shaved the rear wiper. I am very happy with how the match came out. Next up is to get my stock hood repainted (more stone chips) and get a pair of side skirts.

Not feeling the grill, but the rest of your car looks great. Tell us how you did the side emblems.

WOW, looks hot,

carbon fiber was never my thing, but you got that thing looking hot.

I really like that silver color on your car.
I'm having my maxima totally repainted next week. Long story, but our nissan paint sucks (I know from stories from nissans all across their car line)

I think xpel is a good idea for you, i'm doing the same. I drive fasto n the highway, the bumper gets eaten up so fast.

good work on the z!

The emblems are now a perfect match with the door handles.

How did you do the emblem? Just polish the paint off with a dremel tool?

Give us an answer!
