who painted your headlights?

 

YoungZ33 - I painted them myself.

Bday350z - LoL

 

I love when a fellow forum member offers creative suggestions and does not bash someone for whatever they do. Kudos to the positive reinforcement.

 

I wonder why people with Z's think they are so hot **** anyway. The only reason I say this is because I see so many people who seem to think they are on the top of the heap becuase they own a Z. Don;t get me wrong I love Z's and always will--I have a 91 2+2, a 94TT (424rwh), a 2000 S10, 2002 GSXR 1000 and a 350z, but I used to own a 1998 BMW540i, a 1999 996 (w/10K tech art rims) and a 2000 Range Rover (I sold the latter 3 when I quit practicing law). So, I guess what I am saying is that a Z ain't the top of the heap. If you have a 360 Modena or a Bugatti or a Ford 500GT then maybe you can say everyone else is driving crap, but until then, my fellow Z snobs, you guys should just chill. It's only a 35k car.

Kudos to the dude who ain't afraid to think outside the box. If it doesn't work out, maybe he'll have saved some money for some time attacks or something. If they do work out--then he's got what he wanted and didn't spend 10% of the value of the car on rims and tires.

And . . . I have never owned a PT cruiser, but if I do, it will be paid for in cash just like all my other vehicles . . .so if you are making payments. . .you don't really even own your car . . .you are just renting--just something to think about while your noises are up in the air.

 

So you said all in all it took you about 6hrs. Thats not bad and they came out awesome. Benny is right about the paint quality. I painted my handles and headlights with spray paint and its still holding up well. Good work. You inspire me to paint my own wheels. They arent "volks" so its okay. HAHA

 

I wouldn't paint the wheels with regular spray paint though. Get the duplicolor stuff I got, it holds up to certain conditions and changes in temperature to resist chipping and discoloration.

 

97supratt awesome job!!
like how it turned out

keep up the good work on your goal to a RS Z !

 

I'm buying an '06 Porsche 911 GT3....am I moving on up?...I hope I am.... AND I STILL LOVE MY Z....

 

 

thanks for the link

 

no problem ! just helpin where I can

EDIT: actually it should be a pic..doh!

 

thanks man. How's your turbo kit btw?

 

IMO that wouldnt go to well with the rest of your car. i Say paint the calipers a nice black, or dark gray...

 

Wow 97supratt, your wheels came out freakin' amazing. So you bought all the Duplicolor stuff at Autozone 'n such? I'm planning on doing this on my stock wheels for kicks and experiment around. I haven't seen any DIY's for painting the wheels and I don't feel like spending $200-300 to have somebody do the same job I can. If you can PM me some more details on what you did, I'd greatly appreciate it. Maybe I'll get to this project this weekend and post up some pics.

 

Good DIY SupraTT!! **** all the haters!!

 

i dont see what the big deal is? it looks clean. **** the haters!

 

Looks real good, like the wing BTW.
