iPhone Pictures.... I had the whole car repainted (Nismo Front, OEM Side, OEM Back). However - the Body shop I went to was going to charge me $1,000 to paint and put the +Ings Side Skirts on. So eh - I didn't go through them.

So I went to a good guy I know in Orlando and he put the side skirts (prep & paint), and MOLDED the rear Nismo add-ons for me - and repainted the entire rear bumper again. He also painted the center of the front bumper & the carnards black. (The other shop only painted the front bumper yellow) He was going to mold the side skirts for me but I did not have time since I live in Miami and was going home the next day. He did everything in literally half a day. He had to mold on the add-ons because the fitment was too bad (could not attach to rear bumper since it did not even curve to the rear bumper shape) (Thank You Auto Infantry ) +Ings Side Skirts fit is ok - just ok.

Final Price? 650. Finished in less than half a day? Yes. Driving home the next day in perfect weather condition? Priceless Tell me what you think.

Enjoy the pics...



































Say Hi

He is in Orlando but if you guys would like - he has a "mobile" shop (trailer) where he goes around and paint people's car. He does this for the dealerships (Carmax, Honda, etc) in the Orlando Area. I can give you his contact info because I asked if he would come down south to Miami to paint people's cars. (He can tackle 3 or 4 cars a day. Once the paint is drying on one, he will work on the next, and etc.) Or you can go to Orlando and chill for a day while he does your car. haha. PM me if you want his info. I want to help him out since he hooked me up with a VERY NICE JOB.

Spacers and a pair of black out Volk GT-C would set that off! Looks good though!

the car did not look like that.. that's for sure.. i would have remembered !

in any case the car is looking nice.. I do agree with you, Im not feeling the wheels but like my signature says: If you mod your car to the approval of others then is not really yours...

Joseph, I like your style.. is super clean... about the wheels.. is just a matter of taste.. just go with what you like and what you can afford... my 2 cents...

I agree with everyone about this ride needing black rims.

Paint is unique....but the whole thing comes together nicely.


$650 for molding work and paint? In 1/2 a day? Crazy! This guy is a god in the paint world!!

Very "inexpensive" paint job - but this man knows what he is doing. He did my brother's RX7 - Molded everything (sides and rear) and also the engine bay. I will post pics up later. This guy is the shizzz-nit.

Eh - I like them. BUT I am thinking about getting polished rims next. The Venaci Spirit. I came to the meet A LONG TIME AGO - and it was at the Home Depot not Target.

This man IS The God Paint - His name is Sean. He use to do paint jobs for HIN cars, but too many people scammed him and never paid him, so he stopped on the import seen. He use to collect the money monthly since they were big projects, but people stopped paying him after a month or two I think.
